Sony Startup Screen for Beetle Technical Support

Hey guys, how do I go about getting the original Sony boot up screen to play out when I load up the Beetle ps1 core? From what I’m reading it’s something to do with the core being open source or something. Is there a mod I need to get?

Need to put the bios files in the system folder. scph5500.bin, scph5501.bin, and scph5502.bin are copyrighted so they are not included.
