you can burn up to 840.960.000 bytes or 802 Mb on a 80 min blank in mode 2
(only one session,!!!lead in,pregap ,lead out and run_out_frames_ not subtracted!!!
(14002 sectors)

a cd uses 75 sectors per minute
so you get a maximum of sectors of:
80 minutes *60 seconds *75sectors = 360000 sectors on a 80 min disk

what you do with this sectors is yours,
if you use audio data you can use all 2352 bytes/sector for your audio-data
you can burn 2352*360000 bytes = 846720000 or 807,495 mb (bytes/1024/1024)

if you use mode1 data you can use 2048 bytes/sector for your data
the rest is for additional error correction.
2048*360000=
737280000 bytes or 703,125 mb in this case is the maximum

thats why your 80 min disks are labeled as 700 mb

if you use mode2 data you can use 2336 bytes/sector for your data
theres a REDUCED error correction to mode 1
so that you get more data on that cd
2336*360000=840960000 or 802 Mb

if you want a multsession disk you loose
11700 sectors for the first session,
(lead in, pregap, lead out)
for the second you loose 6902 sectors (reduced lead out)

and thereīs some additional info in a cdi so donīt worry
about the file sizes.

let us know which games donīt work for you.
