In their own words
Avocado
Avocado is a free, open-source PlayStation 1 emulator for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android. It can load files including .cue, .bin, .img, .chd, .ecm, .exe, .psexe, .psf, and .minipsf by drag and drop. Listed save tools include save states, quick save and load, and rewinding by one second. It supports digital controllers, DualShock, and mouse input, with up to two controllers and no multitap. Audio support includes XA-ADPCM and Red Book, and graphics use OpenGL hardware rendering. The project lists support for Anti-Modchip and LibCrypt protected games; PAL LibCrypt games need additional .SBI or .LSD subchannel information. A BIOS from a real console is required and must be placed in the data/bios directory; BIOS selection is prompted on first run. The project is in early development, so games may not start or may crash soon after. It is single-threaded, and audio synchronized to NTSC 60 Hz can stutter in PAL games.
