Note: as for r9070, PC Engine CD emulation works, with the following noted quirks:

- all (?) games boots, if you can't surpass the CD System screen then most likely your image is bad / corrupt;
- it doesn't have any ADPCM emulation;
- it doesn't seem to have any CD-DA / "red book" playback;
- some of the games tested have shuffled graphics, probably something to do with DMAing;
- other games instead doesn't show/have garbage with the player sprite, dunno at current time why this peculiar thing happens;
- most if not all the games are very prone to hangs, most likely due of missing ADPCM status flags;
- Akumajou Dracula X is very fussy about starting a play on the title screen;
- All (?) Falcom games minus Ys 3 hangs with black screen at start-up smirk

And now, some random screens:

4 in 1 Super CD

?
CD-DA works fine for me in e.g. the Tokimeki Memorial intro, maybe your rip is bad?

You can rule out driver issues by passing the CHD to the cdtv driver, which plays audio CDs.

Yes, CD-DA should work. Easy to test by simply creating a CHD from some cd-single/small cd and try to play it in the built-in cd player.
