Hi,

I'm new to SVCD burning. My recorder burns best using TAO. At DAO most of the time is returned saying "Invalid field in parameter list".
Anyway I found out that I-Author produces CIF images which can be burned using TAO. But when I choose DVD2SVCD to use I-Author it produces invalid CIF files. Easy CD creator starts burning but at the it says something like the tracksize differs from the image size.
I also tried to open the CIF with CDmage: "File length doesn't match sector boundry"

Any suggestion will be appriciated!

Thanks in advance,
Kurt.

I should just flatly delete this post but everybody gets one shot at being lazy :) Please read the Q&A plus all other faqs before posting again. I will give you a hint and suggest Q&A #50 as well as the sticky titled "Foolproof way to burn a disk".

Thanks for you reaction,

I think you can't conclude that I didn't do my homework by reading just my message. I've read #50 a long time ago. If you took the time to read my message carefully enough, you could have read that my CD burner doesn't support DAO very wel so I'm forced to use CIF's. So converting to CUE/BIN isn't a solution for me. For I assume CUE and BIN's can be burned DAO only?!

Gtx,
Kurt.

Blindwrite can do .bin/.cue with session at once (SAO)

kurtswinkels, yup sorry I missed that detail. What type of burner do you have so people can know to avoid it.

I have a Philips Omniwriter26 (SCSI). Are there more programs like blindwrite that support TAO when burning CUE/BIN?

I just tested a demo of blindwrite: Omniwriter26 is not supported.
But thanks for the tip.
