I would like to expand on a discussion I started some time ago:

https://www.videohelp.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10

The general idea is to create a hybrid CD that will play as VCD in DVD players, Audio CD in audio CD players, and as Autorun Data CD when inserted into a PC.

For those of you in-the-know about these sorts of things, there is Baldrick's guide, "How to make a VCD/SVCD with CD Audio (CDDA)":

https://www.videohelp.com/forum/userguides/113432.php

The VCD authoring tool suggested in the guide is VCDEasy. Following the guide is relatively easy with one exception--and that's building the VCD menu. Unfortunately, I have discovered that building a menu in VCDEasy isn't actually very easy at all!

Well, I have discovered another means of achieving the same results without the use of VCDEasy. There are other Video CD authoring tools out there that are much more intuitive when it comes to building interactive menus (with motion buttons, even). NeroVision Express, namely.

So, to expand on Baldrick's guide and to continue this discussion, here is my suggestions on using your own VCD authoring tool of choice, picking-up on Baldrick's guide after a .CUE/.BIN file pair have been created:

--Be sure your VCD authoring tool of choice will create a fully-compatible VCD: Do a test burn and play it in your set-top DVD player and see if it works. There is no reason for you to continue the process if it does not
--If you want to add data, say, for an Autorun CD-ROM, be sure your VCD authoring tool allows you to add additional data folders to your project
--Be sure your VCD authoring tool can write to an image file. If it does not write .CUE/.BIN files natively, be sure that image file is compatible with an image converting tool such as WinISO, ISO Buster, or UltraISO
--Use the image file utility to convert your VCD image to .CUE/.BIN

And voila! You have yourself a .CUE/.BIN file pair and are ready to import those sessions into FireBurner, as per Baldrick's guide.

I authored a VCD using NeroVision Express, and then wrote a .NRG image file. I then used UltraISO to convert the .NRG image file to that of a .CUE/.BIN pair. The resulting disc works like a charm!

Something to note about FireBurner, however: Be sure to configure the Recording method settings to "Track-at-once", and the Multi-session settings to "Close CD".

Happy burning!
