Preparing a Device

Why prepare a device?

OPL expects a specific folder structure on the storage device (DVD, CD, PS1, APPS, ART, CFG, VMC). Preparing a device creates this structure automatically so imported games and artwork land in the right place.

Steps

  1. Connect the storage device.
  2. Open the Devices hub and select the device.
  3. Choose Prepare device.
  4. OPL Forge creates the required folders and reports the result.

After preparing

Once prepared, the device is ready for library imports and will show up with live space/health metrics on the Home screen.
