Select Linuz Iso CDVD v0.9.0 and hit configure.
Use configure button to open the plugin configuration dialog.
*This plugin has the extra ability of compressing your images to save you disk space apart from running your images for the emulator.
*The unique feature of this plugin is that it allows you compressing and using compressed ISO images to save your HDD space. It can also decompress compressed earlier ISO images.
*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.
*To compress, decompress or use an already existing ISO image click ''Select ISO'' button. Once you've selected an image you can compress/decompress it by using the corresponding button. The selected image will also be used to boot a game when you start emulator.
*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.
**Note that plugin has two compression modes: ''.Z'' (faster compression, bigger result size) and ''.BZ'' (slower compression, smaller result size).
*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.
*The ''Enable Block Dump=>ISO name.dump'' checkbox is used manly for debugging purposes. When checked, the plugin will create '''''ISO name'''.dump'' file in the PCSX2 folder. This file will contain every sector read during the emulation of the game. You can select this file using ''Select ISO'' button afterwards and run like any other ISO image but if the game will attempt to read any sector was not included in this file, you will experience a hang or the emulator will crash.

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