[gregor]

loveo,
how can I burd VCDs with WinOnCD 3.8PE build with VCD Toolkit?
When I do that, my DVD-player identify the tracks as audio.

[gregor]

I have follow the step by step introduction from the
http://www.icdia.org/cdprosupport/vcd/vcd2x/vcd_burn.htm
site but if finish burning there was no directory at disc but the tracks are there.
Please help!

What error message are you getting when try to read the CD?

RF

[gregor]

I get no error messages, I've got only an emtpy directory.
No directory was created, but the tracks are on the disk!

[RFontenot]

When you say "empty" does that mean you have a readable root directory, or no directory?

RF

[RFontenot]

How do you know the tracks are on the disk?

RF

[gregor]

When I look at VCD with WinOnCD there are the tracks I've burned.
And I think there was an empty directory because it says 0 Files and 0 Bytes.

Download ISOBuster from http://www.isobuster.com and post what it says about your CD.

OK, I've done:
When I start the ISOBuster I get the following message:

Unknown File System:
The Primary Volume Descriptor is Unknown to the application.
Do you want isobuster to proceed in search for another supported File system?

So I've pressed YES and isobuster will go on:
It show me the following structure:
-CDRW
- Session_1
- Track 1
- Track 2
- ...

Problem solved!
Now I can finaly burn with winoncd.
My way to get success:
1) Bulid with vcd2tk1
2) add the -s in the *.msc file
3) rebuild with vcdmaster
4) use splitter
5) finaly burn with WinOnCD described at http://www.icdia.org/cdprosupport/index.html
My VCD runs well on PC and DVD-Player!

Are you using the splitter utility or the new TOCSplit 1.1 utility?

RF

[gregor]

Yes, you can also use the TOCSplit 1.1 utility. but the way you get success is a little bit diffrent:
1) Build with vcd2tk1
2) Use TOCSplit and Fix MSC
3) Rebiuld with vcd2tk1
4) Use TOCSplit Setup option: CUE/ Track files
5) Use WinOnCD:
a) Select only the created BIN files
b) Set track and file format discribed, but do not change the 'Start writing at block offset' field.
This way is much easier than useing splitter!
