Dear Roman,
would you consider adding CHD compression support to clrmamepro alongside zip, rar etc.?
Recently Beetle PSX emulator was updated to support CHD files natively. Now I'd love to rebuild my PSX redump collection to this streamable format.
Of course I still want to be able to scan / fix my sets afterwards with redump dats...
Is that possible?
Kind regards

no, native chd compression is not considered.....simply because it's not a normal compression method/tool.
You need to know additional information about the media which you want to put in a chd...like is it a CD/DVD/HD/FLOPPY/Laserdisk etc...sector sizes, metadata information and so on.
It's not just a "compress sourcefile to destinationfile".
