nintendolover0620 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 So I have been on a Sega cd burning frenzy lately and I was wondering can you burn a game with just one iso file and no mp3s? Because the other games I burnt (Sonic CD, and Mortal Kombat) had one iso and many mp3 files. Btw the iso works on a emulator. Also the tutorials I was following is this: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&sqi=2&ved=0CCYQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fatariage.com%2Fforums%2Ftopic%2F130255-tips-on-burning-sega-cd%2F&ei=bIBmVeb_IobQtQXnwYKAAg&usg=AFQjCNE4f4JeuWrZ0VItwuK-Pip4bUeuqg&sig2=RO76O7BX2MAf32VIRSSKEA&bvm=bv.93990622,d.b2w Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickcris Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) you have to convert the mp3s to wav. follow this guide: http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?23390-Sega-Mega-CD-Burning-ISO-s-Guide edit: im actually not sure I understand your question, so that might not be what you were looking for.

nintendolover0620 Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 The game that comes with no mp3s and just one iso works perfectly on an emulator btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickcris Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 burn it and see what happens. worse thing that can happen is you waste a disc, but if it works in an emulator its probably fine. maybe it was ripped made with a different method. The reason those rips have audio converted to mp3s was to keep them smaller. I have some rips that are bin/cue files that work fine when burned.

CGQuarterly Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Should work just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Yes they were just ripped differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGameCollector Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Bin/cue seems to be easier to manage than messing with iso/mp3 files. When bin/cue's are made, all of the audio track data is burned into the bin file so no mp3s are generated separately. The cue tells the burning software which tracks to burn the audio data onto. I guess people used to upload ISO and mp3 files instead of bin/cue because it allowed them to split the files and upload them separately. But with today's high internet speeds that method seems obsolete now. I think you could also replace the audio tracks with different tracks if you named the files correctly though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 BIN/CUE are the best, for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
