bin2iso V1.9b - Converts RAW format (.bin) files to ISO/WAV format
Bob Doiron, ICQ#280251
Linux port by Owen: mxu@cae.wisc.edu
Check for updates at http://users.andara.com/~doiron
Usage: bin2iso <cuefile> [<output dir>] [-[a]wg] [-t XX] [-i] [-nob]
or : bin2iso <cuefile> -c <binfile>
Where:
<cuefile> - the .cue file that belongs to the .bin file to
be converted
<output dir> - the output directory (defaults to current dir)
-nwg - indicates that audio data found in the track
'gaps' shouldn't be appended to the audio tracks
-awg - looks for non-zero data in the 'gaps', if found
then gaps are appended to audio tracks. Looks
for more than 1/2 of a sector of non-zero values
(588 values),
-t XX - Extracts the XX'th track.
-i - Performs the conversion 'in place'. Meaning it
truncates the binfile after each track is
created to minimize diskspace requirements.
[not valid with -t]
-nob - Doesn't use overburn data past 334873 sectors.
This of course presumes that the data is not
useful.
-c - Attempts to create a <cuefile> from an existing
<binfile>
---------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: This is a work in progress!
So far I beleive it handles MODE1, MODE2 and AUDIO tracks.
Since I have little exposure to .bin files, and little expertise in
CD formats, I can't guarantee this will work for all .bin's.
so... TEST the output before burning. Use Winimage on the ISO files
and a wave player on the WAVs.
If you do run into trouble, send me the following info:
- .cue file
- command line used
- the screen output
- directory listing of source and files created (with sizes)
and I'll fix it up.
Revision History
v1.9b
- Oops.. was no way to turn writegap off:
changed -wg option to -nwg
v1.9a
- Fixed bug in extracting single track
- changed code to default to writing gap data because of the way
easycd pro writes the table of contents for the cd
v1.9
- revamped internally allowing me to do add some functionality...
Added a -i option to allow converting a bin using a little diskspace
as possible. !NOTE! This is destructive to the original .bin
- No longer barfs on PREGAP lines...
- Added a -awg option that checks for non-zero data in the gaps between
audio tracks and turns on the -wg feature if it finds more than half
a sector of non-zero values.
- Added a -nob option that ditches overburn data. I haven't tested this,
but rumour has it that some cd players can't access data over 74.XX
minutes. I'm not sure if I beleive this, but I put the option in in
case I get a chance to try it. (so far untested!)
v1.8b
- modified the audio gap detection scheme for creating cue files...
Now it may detect extra gaps, but they are easily removed by editing
the cuefile. Before it would sometimes not detect gaps, so I think
this is better.
v1.8
- Added the ability to create a cuefile from a binfile.
(assumes MODE1/2352, MODE2/2352 or AUDIO tracks)
- Added ISO track numbering for cd's with more than one data track
v1.7
- Made the reads/writes happen in 4Meg chunks... should speed things up
when read from and writing to the same disk. (less head thrashing)
- Added Mode2/2336: When this type of track is encountered, it converts
it to the trusty Mode2/2352 track we're used to. (Burn with EasyCD
or open with WinImage)
Or, if you like, you can rename the output from a .iso to a .bin and then
edit the cue file track type from MODE2/2336 to MODE2/2352 to burn with
cdrwin.
v1.6
- Added a '-wg' command switch to make bin2iso append pregap sectors to the
last wav file. Useful because some cd's have music in the pregaps.
Note: most TAO burning leaves 2 second gaps between songs, so if you copy
a copy, then don't use the -wg option. If you do use it, then the
audio track will grow by 2 seconds.
v1.5
- Fixed parsing of the filename from the cue file. (handles spaces etc)
- Added progress display
- Detects a single track, mode2 bin which can be burnt as is.
- Verifies data tracks (checks the mode and frame sequence)
v1.4
- fixed bug that occured when tracks had no pregap index
- parsing of .bin filename out of .cue file now ditches path info
- fixed bugs in [<output dir>] parsing. (trailing '\' or ':')
v1.3
- first release to public
Suggested programs:
WinImage - for viewing ISO images
EasyCD Pro 2.11 (020) - for burning ISO or Mixed mode ISO/WAV
(rumour is that creator doesn't always burn the
images as is, sometimes screws long filenames
or burns a mode2 iso in mode1 form, etc, etc)
Nero - Burning Rom - For burning AUDIO disks because it allows changing
the gap size on my sony928e.
!DO NOT USE! Easy CD Creator for burning mode2/2352 images. You'll get a coaster.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Don't know of any problems right now. Let me know.
