My “Crash Team Racing” Game is unreadable. I own 3 copies of it and sometimes none of them work. Unfortunately Crash Team Racing (Best Game Ever) is notoriously difficult (if not impossible) to copy 100%.
Title says it all - how can i burn downloaded ps1 ISOs with a mac? I did this like 6 years ago on an old mac and i'm not sure how. I'm sure i used toast, but i'm not sure what the settings were. I tried burning a game last night on my old laptop (which is still newer than what i used to burn with) and it didn't work.
I've been pulling my hair out googling and finding nothing. Can someone tell me how to do this?first to answer without saying 'boot camp' gets a warp whistle!UPDATEi was actually searching for how to do this the other night and the first result from google was my own post from nearly 4 years ago! Wowza!since i've figured out the answer to my own question, i thought i'd leave it here in case anyone needs to know.
Maybe even for my own future referencethese instructions are for using toast titanium 8, though any version should suffice.CCD (cloneCD image)1) select the 'copy' tab2) choose 'image file'3) select the.img file4) burn!single BIN/CUE1) select the 'copy' tab2) choose 'bin/cue files'3) select the cue file4) burn!multiple BINs1) select the 'copy' tab2) choose 'multi-track CD-ROM XA'3) select the BIN files4) to be safe, check the cue file to make sure the block sizes match in the toast window5) burn!i've yet to come across any ISO files, but i think the CCD method should work for those too. If you google 'imgburn mac'.First hit:Just use your head, you need a program that can burn the type of image you have. Check to see if the program supports ISO, BIN/CUE, etc.If you are needing to burn PS1 images, they'll most likely be in CCD. I don't know of anything other than Clone CD that will burn a CCD image for you, and I don't think there's a Clone CD for Mac. My guide shows you how to mount the image in a virtual drive and rip it to BIN/CUE so you can burn it in Imgburn. You could do the same on Mac using different software.My guide can still be used, it just wont spoon feed and guide your hand through a specific software (click here, then here, then here). You'll still be doing that SAME thing, just with a different program.
Just use your head.Besides Boot Camp, isn't there a way for Mac to emulate a Windows program? I'm pretty sure there is, it was called Rosetta Stone or something like that? And besides Boot Camp, what about a virtual PC? CRTGAMER wrote:I have not played too much burning on the Mac, use the PC which just seems to have so much more variety of burning tools. I do know, when the daughter makes music CDRs with her Mac iTunes, an extra outer track can be seen. The older car CD player takes longer to start the Mac burned disc compared to a PC burned CDR. The disc is wrote as a single burn, pretty sure a close out session, just weird having that extra track.
Is there a setting to get rid of that extra track in an iTune burn?You're doing something particularly odd there. When I burn itunes CDRs for the car I just make a playlist and burn it, no extra tracks, loads up instantly plus it has the CD-Text and everything.Regarding the virtualisation tool for mac, the most well known is Parallels. There are alternatives of course such as VirtualBox which is free.Burn is a good (and free) tool for burning images on mac. Failing that, Toast has a trial (or used to) to see if it is compatible before buying (or copying, depending on morals). Niode wrote:You're doing something particularly odd there.

When held up to the light, an outer track can be seen in addition to the blank section of the CDR. Perhaps that CD Text is the extra Data track? The music CDRs work fine, but just a slower initial access in the older car CD player. Meh still works, just an inconvenience switch daughter's CD out waiting for that read to finish. Just a curiosity of some way to make the CDRs with only raw music tracks without any extras. Niode wrote:You're doing something particularly odd there.

When I burn through iTunes on my Mac, I don't have that issue.

I verified the discs on both iMac, Windows XP Explorer and Nero reports a single session closed CDR. The CDRs do play, just the extra track at the edge showing.Not a big deal, just a curiosity. No, its not a Dreamcast CDR.
