Buying a PS-IO was your first mistake
Buying it second hand was your second one
>afraid to update firmware because the creator wants to brick any second-hand PSIOs
The creator wants to brick any bootleg/clone PS-IOs, not second hand ones. Oh, and also dox you (He used to have a page doxing people who cloned them) and even steal it if he somehow gets his hands on it (He just kept ones that were sent to him that turned out to be bootlegs and told the person who sent it screw you)
For secondhand ones he wants to double-dip and make you pay for any future upgrades. The firmware hasn't been updated since last year though (after no updated for several years) and I doubt it ever will be again. He had a meltdown over delaying the update for years and banning people who ask too many questions to load it with (even more) DRM to fight the cloners he was obsessed about, saying he will stop updating it at all if it's ever hacked again, and the latest DRM-filled update was hacked again in less than a month.
>>can't change games in SD card because the proprietary program needed to format a PSIO card is some Python files I have to fucking compile
What? No, it uses standard a standard FAT32/exFAT filesystem for the SDcard and BIN/CUE for the disk format, about as standard as you can get. If you have a game that uses CD track audio though (Most PS1 games did not) you will have to merge the tracks into a single bin file and generate CU2 file or the game will work but the tracks will not play. The python app is a third party tool someone made to automate this, their official tool to do it is an EXE file, though if you have a lot of games to convert the pythun tool is easier.
>>even when I compiled it, it doesn't format multidisc games correctly and some disc images won't launch at all
It's for games with multiple TRACKS, not multiple DISKS. You don't need to do anything for multi-disk games other than keep all of their files in the same folder.
