CDParanoia images on MS-Windows

Hi everybody,

I have some cd images on a Unix machine using cdparanoia (FLAC + cue). Now I need to burn those images on a Windows machine.

I realised that Nero can burn cdparanoia images if a certain plugin is installed (nxMyFLA.dll). I tried this many times but Nero keeps crashing halfway in the burn process...

Questions:
1. Does anybody know why Nero crashes and knows how to fix it?
2. Are there other (preferably free) programs that can handle cdparanoia images on Windows?

Additional Information:
Using Nero 6.6.0.6 and a Plextor Premium on Windows XP.

Thanks for any help...

Andreas

Why not simply decode the FLAC to WAV first and burn from that?

...off course I can decode the FLAC. Problem is that I cannot use the cue sheet. So the resulting CD would only have one very long track...

I'm not a Windows user but I'd recommend looking at burnatonce.

Burrrn maybe?
You can drag a cuesheet which points to a FLAC file onto Burrrn.  It will use the cuesheet to create the tracks, and write CD-Text if required, and comes with a copy of FLAC to decode the file to WAV on the fly.

It's possible you may need to first convert the cuesheet from CR (/n) to CRLF (/n/r).  I'm not sure if Burrn will freak at a cuesheet wil Unix line breaks or not.  Give it a go I guess.
I'm on a horse.

Did you read my post?

Sorry. Yes, of course. Only EAC cuesheets are mentioned on the homepage of Burrrn, so I don't think that it will recognize CDParanoia cuesheets... I might try it anyway on the weekend...

Thanks to everybody for your posts.

Andreas

Edit:I just downloaded and installed Burrrn. It works fine with EAC cuesheets but it doesn't recognize CDParanoia cuesheets (even if line endings are converted from Unix to Windows format).

If your cue files look like this:
Code: [Select]
CD_DA


// Track 1
TRACK AUDIO
NO COPY
NO PRE_EMPHASIS
TWO_CHANNEL_AUDIO
ISRC "GBBKS0100349"
FILE "/Users/ffooky/Documents/data.bin" 0 03:02:31


Then you could try converting them to a standard cue with cueconvert, though I know that burnatonce was the only Windows app that could cope with some bin/cue files created by another *nix program.

it might help to post the cue you are using...

the fact that you have a "cdparanoia image" is not necessary.  perhaps the cue will need to be converted, but a flac file is a flac file on any OS.

Thanks, cueconvert *did* convert the cuesheet to a .toc-file, at first this seemed to work. But burnatonce does not recognize the generated .toc-file

Of course a FLAC file is a FLAC file on any OS and of course I can listen to my FLAC file... It was generated by ripping a CD to one single file. Without a cuesheet it is just many minutes of music without any chance to know where one title ends and the next starts. And without a proper cuesheet I can not burn a CD from it to get a copy of the original CD (which actually was the idea when ripping the file to FLAC+cue).

Here is the cuesheet as generated by CDParanoia (Unix line ends converted):

Code: [Select]

I found the problem, sorry to have bothered you all....

Apparently it was all just due to an index problem on the last track... I don't really understand how it happend, though.

CDparanioa's cuesheets actually seem to have the same format as EAC's, but that was hard to see for me because the file had Unix line ends, so it was hard to read on my Windows machine.

Thanks again for your time...

Andreas
