It seems like FCEU was compatible with FDS roms, but I can't seem to figure out how to use FCEUXD with FDS roms.

I'm trying to weed out all my emulators and finding a good one to use for everything, but I guess FCEUXD doesn't allow for Eject, Flip A, B side, or Insert the disk. If it doesn't, what's the second best emulator ever to use for FDS emulation (I really wanted to use FCEUXD to figure out some ASM stuff in FDS).

That's it, hope for replies soon, because I want to check out DokiDokiPanic in it.

Copied from the FCEU help file:

"Famicom Disk System

You will need the FDS BIOS ROM image in the base FCE Ultra directory. It must be named "disksys.rom". FCE Ultra will not load FDS games without this file.
Two types of FDS disk images are supported: disk images with the FWNES-style header, and disk images with no header. The number of sides on headerless disk images is calculated by the total file size, so don't put extraneous data at the end of the file.

You should make backups of all of your FDS games you use with FCE Ultra. This is because FCE Ultra will write the disk image back to the storage medium, and the disk image in RAM might have been corrupted because of inaccurate emulation(this case is not likely to occur, but it could occur)."

The same works for FCEUXD.

Ah, I meant along the lines of flipping the disk over, ejecting, and inserting. Took me awhile to figure it out, but I did figure out how to flip, etc. with FCEUXD. Push F8 to eject the disk and F6 to flip or change disks. Push F8 again to insert the disk. I kept messing with the E, I, A, and B buttons, guess that was NNNesterJ that did that.

Oh shit. I never read that part. Yeah, that's in the FCEU user manual too.

FDS roms aren't supported with FCEUXD, and it isn't recommended that you even try to run them. I suppose the debugger and ppu viewer would work with them, but the hex editor certainly won't, as it was designed with iNES roms in mind. Same goes for NSF files.

Mainly I was going to use the FCEUXD's debugger for it. I haven't found any problems with it sofar, but my guess is, it's not a good idea to use it with logging code since I'm pretty sure it also only for iNES roms.

If FDS hacking was more popular, there might be a possibilty for FCEUXD to include all it's features to work with FDS as well. Of course, no one really does, so it's not even a question.
