[Cdrtools-developers] BIN/CUE burning error

[Anthony B. <ant...@ho...>]

Hello,

I've been using your program recently to play some classic PC games that I've missed, but I keep running into errors when burning BIN/CUE file for mixed mode discs:

cdrecord: Unsupported sector size 2352 for data on line 2 col 16 in 'Insert file.cue'.


I've tried a couple different workarounds like:

-Mounting it on a virtual drive in Win98 (works but no sound)

-Using Brasero and cdrdao (doesn't work)

-Using Xfburn (only supports ISO files)

-Copying the raw data and re-stitching it back as ISO and Wave files (takes a while, but won't work for every game)

-Making a TOC file from scratch to replace the CUE sheet (Works on linux, but causes ear bleeds on Windows)

-Reinstalling cdrecord from the repositories (couldn't find it)

-Reinstalling cdrecord with "sudo pacman -S cdrecord" (doesn't work)


So I'm out of ideas and I've been at this for about a week. I've looked online for some answers and the closest thing I found was that this may be a bug in cdrecord.

https://mandrivausers.org/index.php?/topic/8962-k3b-cdrecord-and-unsupported-sector-size/

It's old, but it pretty much describes my problem.


Now I'm still a noob with Linux so if I did something wrong, I would love to know how to improve.


I'm currently using:

Manjaro Xfce version 18.1.3 (Juhraya)


Here is the version of cdrecord according to the manual:

Version 3.02 2017/09/21


I hope this is enough information to figure out what's happening, again I'm still new to Linux and I want to keep using it as I love it compared to Windows. I prefer to have little road blocks like these compared to the virus minefield of Windows.


I wish you good luck improving this app, and hopefully this means I won't need to find another workaround.
