As PicoDrive is multiplatform emulator, this is GP2X specific part of readme
about configuration.
If you have questions, you can use GP32X to ask for help.

11. "Use SRAM savestates"
This will automatically read/write SRAM savestates for games which are using them.
SRAM is saved whenever you pause your game or exit the emulator.
11. "Use SRAM/BRAM savestates"
This will automatically read/write SRAM (or BRAM for Sega/Mega CD) savestates for
games which are using them. SRAM is saved whenever you pause your game or exit the
emulator.
12. "GP2X CPU clocks"
Here you can change clocks of both GP2X's CPUs. Larger values increase performance.
There is no separate option for the second CPU because both CPUs use the same clock
source. Setting this option to 200 will cause PicoDrive NOT to change GP2X's clocks

This will always apply gzip compression on your savestates, allowing you to
save some space and load/save time.

If you are able to use USB joysticks with your GP2X, this options selects which
player the joystick controls.

This will disable config autowrite on exit (which might cause SD card corruption

This overclocks the GP2X RAM chips, but may cause instability. Recommended if you

Well known way to improve the GP2X performance. You must restart the emulator
for the change of this option to take effect.
Sega/Mega CD options
--------------------
1,2,3. "USA/EUR/JAP BIOS"
These options just shows if your BIOS files were correctly detected be the
emulator (it shows the filename it is using). If so, you can press Start to test
your BIOS.
4. "CD LEDs"
The Sega/Mega CD unit had two blinking LEDs (red and green) on it. This option
will display them on left-top corner of the screen.
5. "CDDA audio (using mp3s)"
This option enables CD audio playback.
6. "PCM audio"
This enables 8 channel PCM sound source. It is required for some games to run,
because they monitor state of the audio chip.
7. "ReadAhead buffer"
This option is for dealing with slow SD card access in GP2X, which makes FMV
games unplayable. It will allow emulator not to access SD card for longer periods
of time, but it will take more time to fill the buffer.
8. "Scale/Rot. fx"
The Sega/Mega CD had scaling/rotation chip, which allows effects similar to
"Mode 7" effects in SNES. Unfortunately emulating it is slow, and very few games
used it, so it's better to disable this option.
9. "Better sync"
This option is similar to "Perfect synchro" in Gens. Some games require it to run,
for example most (all?) Wolfteam games, and some other ones. Don't use it for
games which don't need it, it will just slow them down.
