I have a game on my pc that is a bit too big for a disc. Is there a way to convert it into a cue sheet that will fit on a 700m disc?

Thanks on my previous post, but I figured it out...I used bin2iso to pack many similar named files into an iso archive and knocked over 100m off the final folder size...my next question is, is there a way to pack all game files into a single iso?...

Ok, so should you burn an image with only "Raw data" or Mode 1 form 1 2048?
Which is better? I burned an image with 2048(mode 1 form 1) and it allowed me to open the CD, but when I began installing, an error came up that said "redundant file check" or something similar and I had to close the installation process.
Does this mean the game is corrupted? Or is it that my write speed is set too high and is giving me errors?
You guys probably have already discussed it; BUt I am not for sure.

ok, I thought I would state the image files I am trying to work with.. They are:
*.ccd & *.img
I burned directly from the *.img file

BIN files contain a lot of overhead so they tend to be 750MB or so for dataCDs. They also store a lot of usual stuff required to defeat some of the crappier/older copy protections. When you goto ISO, all you are really doing is throwing away the extra information and leaving a file (which is not a good thing to do).

1. Mode1/2048 is for ISO, Mode1/2352 is for BIN (notice the extra info stored with BIN files).
2. You can rule out burn speed by burning slower
3. You might have corrupted the image during conversion if you didnt select proper settings etc. With a BIN you can do error checking... you cant do so with ISOs.

CCD/IMG/SUB files are native to CloneCD so use CloneCD to burn them :) (or use A120 etc).

ok well i'm new to this but i've read up on the past threads and i get the idea of burning .cue files onto cd. i used the latest version of Nero, and i'm trying to burn a .cue file for Adobe Premiere. when i installed the cd after burning it nothing happened. Also when i first unzipped the bin and cue files, a message came up on winRAR saying that the .bin file is corrupt. does this have anything to do with my problem? well it would be helpful if i got some advice. oh and if i just downloaded a bad file, does anyone have an Adobe Premiere pack they can send me? i really need it for this project i have to do. thank you

Thank you man! For being direct in your quotes and responsive to each request. I appreciate your time and information. Believe me, I think a hell of alot of people on here owe you a great deal of gratitude, and I want to extend my hand and say "thank you".
Oh, and I did find out how to use the 2335 Bin or the RAW data burn.. Thanks for the tip..
I just downloaded the Clone Cd and it works perfectly for the game file I was talking about.. Seemed easy once I knew what the hell those files were..
LOL

*teleport needed*
What film are you trying to rip? What are you burning the files with? What media are you using? What make/model burner are you using?
Can't help much if you don't give us much to go on :)

ebeechem: i dont know if you noticed but this forum is primarily for CD discussions and if we should ever drift to the realm of DVDs that's because they are DataDVDs rather than movies. Please ask in the DVD sections, knowledgeable people will be glad to help.

Well you should prolly buy the game :) (or consider the forum policies -- or read the nocd nfo)

my friend recently sent me a home movie but he sent it in the .bin/cue way
when i tried to burn the .cue to a cd i get this message on burnatonce:
Starting write at speed 24...
Turning BURN-Proof on
Executing power calibration...
Power calibration successful.
ERROR: Drive does not accept any cue sheet variant -
ERROR: Writing failed.
does that mean my writer cant burn .cue files?
is there any other way i can see the movie
i dont need it on a cd

Odd but I think it just might be that burnproof doesnt accept all types of CUE files(?) -- odd but possible. Open up the CUE file in notepad ... what does it say?
You might consider using Nero/Alochol120 to burn it :)

Ok, I've seen a lot of posts that Nero can really fit 750mb on a 700mb cd and what not, but what do I do with a 1.49gb bin file? The cue that came with it is normal and puts it on one cd. Is there a way of editing the cue to fit it on two, and will that still install right? or do I have to compress the bin somehow? and can I even fit the file on two 700 mb cds? as you can see im new to the whole bin/cue scence, please help. Thanks!

With the exception of some world-class overburning, 750MB isnt possible for a 700MB DataCD. However AudioCDs and (S)VCDs go in excess of that all the time.

You burn it on a DVD.

Probably not and no.

Help with CUE sheets.
I want to mix & match Audio tracks from different CD sources (eg. PRINCE & AALIYAH mixed). Accordingly I have downloaded ".BIN"s from various sources , but I believe, I need to create a CUE sheet to copy the tracks in the sequence I want to.
Could somebody help me with that. I believe, CUE files can help me do it by associating the "BINs" to tracks.
FILE "image-name.BIN" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:00:00
FILE "image-name2.BIN" BINARY
TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
INDEX 01 00:04.35
Is that how you do it ? The last line being the time duration of the TRACK01 song ?
