***ALL-IN-ONE-CDI-IMAGE-BURNING-GUIDE(AND MORE)***

Different ways to burn CDI-images, if you fail with DJ 2.xx, try these in
alphabetical order...

(A) jinxter driver and DJ 2.xx or DJ 3.xx(with CDICONV)
(B) cdirip, burn with CDRWIN
(C) detailed info burning the cdirip-images with different programs
(D) detailed info if your burner canīt write CDīs LBA=11700
(E) If everyting else fails, you can try this : convert to utp-bootdisc-game

(A1) YOU CAN USE YOUR COASTERS AGAIN (COASTER = CD you īlostī, by any DJ-error)
(A2) adding a dummy to CDI-images (needed for a few early self-bootables)
(A3) making a backup from a self-boot-cd, using my methods
(A4) CDRECORD first steps
(A5) if CDRECORD wonīt work --> check LBA with EasyCD Creator !!!
(A6) patching 1st_read.bin by yourself.
(A7) method (C) - additional hints...
this text file is getting fairly large->use search to hop between the chapters.

*
I have tested all the mentioned methods using
a Phillips CDD3610(=Traxdata 2260 Plus=HP7200)
*

(A)
*jinxter driver*

The first method could work, but for me it worked only for a few games :

(a)Use the Jinxter-driver and DiscJuggler 2.xx
(b)Use Jinxter-driver, CDI-CONV.exe to convert to DJ 3.xx image, and try
to burn with DJ 3.xx

**keep your coasters...you can use them again-->(A1) or (D)**

If you fail try :


(B)
*cdirip-cdrwin*

The second method (CDI-Rip and CDRwin) works only if you can check the
īopen new session"-box (not for me):
*DONīT USE CDICONV - OR YOU CANīT USE CDIRIP*

follow the readme that comes along with CDIRIP.

If you get the wrong LBA(see (C)), DONīT BURN THE DATA TRACK, or Iīll
GUARANTEE you a COMPLETE FAILURE...

If you canīt check īopen new sessionī, try :


(C)
*cdririp-winoncd-cdrecord(-EasyCD)*

1.a)
Use CDI-RIP to extract the CDI-image(remember the īoriginalī-LBA of the 2nd session)
*DONīT USE CDICONV - OR YOU CANīT USE CDIRIP*
Now start WinonCD Power Edition (tested), when the wizard comes up, select:

OTHER - USER DEFINED.

Now select the(all) audio-track(s) (taudioxx.raw),created by CDI-RIP in the
windows-explorer and drag them into WinonCD.
Now the programm asks you, which kind of tracks these are, choose:

Track-Image

First check the proper order of your audio-tracks.
Now you have to change the properties of EACH audio-track:
Right-click the tracks and select properties, now check following selections:

file-format : 2352, Audio Data, LSB first
track-format : Digital-Audio

!!IMPORTANT!!
reduce the numer of īblocks to write` by TWO.
ex.: if it says 300, reduce to 298 (you may need to mark the complete area)
If you donīt reduce the number of blocks to write, the 2nd session has the
wrong LBA and therefor your copy wonīt work...
The 2 blocks could also be cut by CUTTRACK
!!!IMPORTANT!!!

Now go to the Disc option seen in the left column, and check the following settings:

Create multisession-CD, write immediately, track-at-once, speed: your choice.

Now insert a CD-R and press RECORD.

When the first session is burned, you may want to check the correct LBA (DOS-Box):

cdrecord dev=x,x,x -msinfo

(you get the proper x,x,x-numbers with the option ī-scanbusī)

IF THE CDīs LBA DOESNīT MATCH the īoriginalī LBA from step 1),
DONīT TRY TO BURN THE DATA TRACK, or youīll produce a COASTER FOR SURE,
instead use method (D)
