Burning bin cue images with an atapi cd burner

So you want use your atapi cd burner to burn a bin/cue image to cd but you need cdrdao to do it. But cdrdao (like cdrecord) needs a SCSI cd burner to work you say! Recently atapicam was commited to -Stable that allows you to send SCSI commands over ide. So now we can use cdrdao/cdrecord with ide burners!


Step 1
update to -Stable #read the handbook at freebsd.org
%man atapicam #for more in depth info

Step 2
compile and install a kernel with these options:
device atapicam #this is _not_ in Generic
device scbus #this is in Generic
device cd #this is in Generic
device pass #this is in Generic
(be sure and reboot : )

Step 3
install cdrdao
#cd /usr/ports/sysutils/cdrdao
#make install clean
( if you want to install cdrecord it's here /usr/ports/sysutils/cdrtools , you don't need it for bin/cue images but it's a great program)

Step 4
run this:
#cdrdao scanbus (this will show you info about your cd burner)
1,0,0: SONY, DVD-ROM DDU1621, S1.6
2,0,0: HP, CD-Writer+ 9500, 1.0e

Step 5
It's time to burn the bin/cue files. For those that don't know bin cue files are mostly used for burning SVCD, VCD movies to cds.
#cd /to/where/you/put/the/bincue
#ls
relaxedthemovie.bin relaxedthemovie.cue
(this is what I use to burn them below)
#cdrdao write --device 2,0,0 --driver generic-mmc --speed 4 relaxedthemovie.cue

that's all there is to it. Hope this helps out!
you can always find me at irc.openprojects.net #freebsd

hi, have a question about making VCD. What should I do if I want to duplicate a VCD, I mean how should I generate *.bin or *.cue files from a VCD? can I use mencoder? thanks!

The VCD is support in burncd on FreeBSD 5.x, but not sure about 4.x.. man burncd:

code:
     vcd           Set the write mode to produce VCD/SVCD tracks for the fol-                     lowing image files on the command line.  This automatically                     sets DAO (-d) and ``no gaps'' (-n) modes.

hi, I just tried cdrdao for creating VCD. I did the following:
1. I have modified my kernel accordingly ( I can burn music CD with cdrecord).
2. install cdrdao and vcdtools,
3. cdrdao scanbus, i get:
Cdrdao version 1.1.7 - (C) Andreas Mueller <andreas@daneb.de>
SCSI interface library - (C) Joerg Schilling
Paranoia DAE library - (C) Monty

Check http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/drives.html#dt for current driver tables.

Using libscg version 'andreas-0.5-UNIXWARE_Patch'

1,0,0: ATAPI, CD-RW 48X24, D.LC
4. generate bin file by mkvcdfs, also got a vcd.toc file.
5. exec command:
cdrdao simulate --device 1,0,0 --driver generic-mmc vcd.toc, i got:
....(chop..)
Starting write simulation at speed 4...
Pausing 10 seconds - hit CTRL-C to abort.
Process can be aborted with QUIT signal (usually CTRL-\).
ERROR: Cannot create shared memory segment: Cannot allocate memory
ERROR: Try to reduce the buffer count (option --buffers).
ERROR: Simulation failed.
6. curse badly, ($#%*....), and play with --buffers 64 or 32, and --speed 4, and got the same result. I was desperate!
7. seek for advice/help/suggestion/solution on bsdforum.
8. watching my manners saying "thanks a lot!".
