Burning .cue / .wav with CDRDAO

Posted by Ben Reubenstein Thu, 17 Nov 2005 20:15:00 GMT

I have had some .cue/.wav files that I have been trying to burn for a long time. The long .wav file has every track of the disc so putting it directly into iTunes would be super l@m3.

I downloaded CDRDAO here. After compiling and installing, I ran this command to burn the disc on my Mac (Tiger):

cdrdao write --device IODVDServices --driver generic-mmc my.cue


Of course, replace my.cue with your cue file and have the .wav file in the same directory.

    Hey man, I've been trying to work this out (stumbled across your blog entry searching for help on syntax for cdrdao in OS X), and it keeps reporting PREGAP OUT OF RANGE. Any ideas?

    Hi Jeff ~

    Pregap out of Range eh? It could be an issue with the particular cue/bin combo. What kind of data is being written? What version of OS X are you running?

    Thanks a lot for this mini-howto! This simple command worked for me on Ubuntu Linux 7.04: $ cdrdao write --device /dev/hdd "Diana Krall - Love Scenes.cue"

    No need to specify which driver to use.

    Bye!
