===CDVD===
In most circumstances, you will be able to use the built in ISO loader in PCSX2 by choosing ISO in the CDVD menu, and then, under ISO Selector, either choosing an image from the list or choosing browse to add one.
On the default installation of the Linux version, only CDVDnull Driver is available.
<br />However, if you want to use a plugin to do things such as playing a game from the actual DVD disc or creating a dump of an ISO file, choose ''Plugin'' in the CDVD menu, and then select a CDVD plugin.
<br />By default, PCSX2 includes:
#Gigaherz's CDVD v0.8.0
#Linuz Iso CDVD v0.9.0
#CDVDnull v0.6.0.
 
====Gigaherz's CDVD====
[[image:Cdvd_Gigaherz_Settings.png|left|thumb|Gigaherz's CDVD]]
Select Gigaherz's CDVD v0.8.0 and press configure.
*Pretty simple really, just select the drive letter from which the plugin will read the disc from. It will then directly run your PS2 game from the CD/DVD you have inserted in your drive
<br />

{{Tip|This is the only plugin that at least partially supports disc changing. If you have troubles changing a disc that is required by a game try this plugin!}}

====Linuz Iso CDVD====
[[image:LinuzIso_Config.png|left|thumb|Linuz Iso CDVD]]
Select Linuz Iso CDVD v0.9.0 and hit configure.
*This plugin has the extra ability of compressing your images to save you disk space apart from running your images for the emulator.
*Click ''Select Iso'' to select the game image you want to run/compress. Once you've selected an image you can either close the config window so you can run it or press "Compress Iso" to compress it. If you selected an already compressed image you can also select "Decompress Iso" to decompress it.
*Under ''Compression Method'' you can select either ".Z - compress faster", which will compress your image faster but make it larger or ".BZ - compress better", which will compress your image slowly but make it smaller.
*Under ''Options'' you can check/uncheck ''Enable Block Dump=>ISO name.dump''. When checked, this option will create a "ISO name".dump file in the PCSX2 root folder(where ''pcsx2.exe'' is located) from the game you ran. This file is like a small iso, '''which is mainly used for debugging'''. It will store the sectors read during the execution of the game you ran, so afterwards you will be able to load the file(using "select iso" of Linuz Iso CDVD) and run it without any image/cd/dvd. Note that if the game will try to read any other sectors from the ones not included in the dump file, it will obviously stop responding.

====CDVD Null====
This is a Null plugin just like GSnull, meaning it simply does nothing.
<br />It doesn't have a configuration screen for obvious reasons.
