So I changed volume on my player also to max, and now both sound same to me.

Source and executable included.

This code to create the psx file that has its source in C. Can you adapt it in C #?

http://xianaix.net is up and running for me. 20 years and still going.

Anyway, I specifically added back then a mirror of the 'Runner ROM' for this exact reason in case that server ever went down. Did you not even read my post on page 1? The mirrored link is directly under the original xianaix URL.

I'm interested if PSX capable of reading CD-Text information on AudioCD ? Maybe there is a project that has implemented such a function ?

Unfortunately it isn't. The signals running from the CD DSP that carry the full subcode (including the R to W channels that CD-Text is stored in) are simply not connected to anything, so this is not something you could fix with software.

:( It's a pity!

And such an option for playing a CD as "A-B repeat" is possible? Or maybe it has already been implemented, I just did not notice it? :?

There isn't any function to do this in the CD-ROM firmware - but it's certainly possible using code running on the main console CPU - there is a command you can send to the the CD drive that gets the current play position, so all you need to do is poll that and when you get to the correct position seek back to start of the section you want to loop.
