I have a bin file of the rom whose size is 555 MB and a cue file of the rom whose size is 1 KB. When I open the cue file there is unhandled exception error. When I open the bin file I am asked to select the console or platform that this rom belongs to. When I choose playstation and proceed I am asked for the firmware. For playstation U I selected SCPH1001.bin bios and SCPH7502.bin for E. Then I reload the rom and the title bar changes to show me that BizHawk is emulating the selected rom but the entire client of the BizHawk main window remains black all the time. Is Castlevania Symphony of the Night playable on BizHawk at all? If yes then what I am doing wrong?

You are supposed to hand it the .cue file, not the .bin file. What does the exception say?

I contribute to BizHawk as Linux/cross-platform lead, testing and automation lead, and UI designer. This year, I'm experimenting with streaming BizHawk development on Twitch. nope Links to find me elsewhere and to some of my side projects are on my personal site. I will respond on Discord faster than to PMs on this site.
Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is software," because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. For instance, how am I gonna stop some high-wattage thread-ripping monster of a CPU dead in its tracks? The answer: use code. And if that don't work? Use more code.
