hey, i know this has probably been awnsered several times before, but i searched all over this board looking for some info and couldnt find a thing.

Im trying to burn a dreamcast game, and i have the CDI file. cept the only problem is for a CDI you have to use DiscJuggler 4.x

I can not find any tutorials on how to properly use DiscJuggler, (i found one for about every other program). If somebody could help me out, or at least point me to where this has been asked before, itd help alot.

thanks

BAAAAAAAAAAAH! ARGGGHHH!! UGH! Consider yourself yelled at. ;P

On a more serious note there are a bunch of solutions to your problem.
1. Try using CDMage to convert the CDI to a more orthadox format like BIN or ISO
2. Use CDRWIN5
3. If you are adamant about using DiscJuggler, the instructions will be very similar to that for CDRWIN5 (since CDRWIN5 is based of DiscJuggler). They will be something along the lines of:
- Open program (CDRWIN/DiscJuggler)
- "Write CD/DVD Image" (or something like that)
- Either point the "source image" to the CDI file (if you are using DiscJuggler) or drag and drop (for CDRWIN). I cant remember if DiscJuggler has drag n drop - its been awhile since i switched over to CDRWIN
- Set the burning parameters. If you open up the CDI file in CDMage it will tell you the image settings (i.e. MODE1/2048 or MODE2/2352 etc.... what this means is that the cd is a MODE1 or MODE2 type disc and the block size is 2048 or 2352). To set this in CDRWIN/DiscJuggler, click on the tab that says "Image Settings", set the correct values and in the case that the block size if 2352, enable "RAW MODE (2352)" under the "Writing Options" or "Burning Options" tab/menu.
- Burn and enjoy.

I reccomend you make a transition to CDRWIN5, a very similar and powerful interface yet much easer to navigate and learn.

EDIT: Hehe i just realized you are burning a Dreamcast game... the instructions i provided above are for PC/ISO kinda stuff... i dunno how well they apply to PS2/DREAMCAST... perhaps another member might be able to verify? (it should work however unless Dreamcast has some really freaky file system)
