Mednafen Support #79

Since Mednaven is the core of some emulator frontends like RetroArch or Provenance (both are among if not the most popular emulators for mobile devices), it would be great if you could play on those.

I used the following for testing: Digimon World (USA).bin (+corresponding Digimon World (USA).cue) Mednafen 1.24.3 (the newest one, both the Provenance IOS and the Windows version) BIOS: scph5501.bin (the US one) Digimon World Randomizer Release 1.1.1

Using the randomizer either prints out one (or more) of the following error messages:

Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148505.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148639.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148640.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148650.  -->see below
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148651.  -->see below
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148654.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148655.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148656.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148657.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148658.
Uncorrectable error(s) in sector 148659.

Most don't hinder the the game from running, but there is no randomness at all.

Certain options cause the marked errors, which result in a black screen instead of the intro video, hence make the game not playable at all.

I hope this proves helpfull.
