MDF to CDI(or other types)

[Hola]

I need something to convert mdf files to something nero or disk juggler can burn because alchohol 120% just doesnt work for me.

[Eric]

what kind of problems are you having? cause there is no tools for that

[curt_grymala]

What exactly are you trying to burn?

[Eric]

Mdf's are images that you can burn with Alcohol 120%. You burn them by using the built in feature of Alcohol 120%. Select the image you want to use on the virtual drive. Then go to copy cd and then you can use your CD-R burner to burn the image straight from your virtual drive. This is strictly help for people who need to know how to burn homebrew files that are in the mdf file format and the virtual drive must be used for mdf files in Alcohol 120%.

I know how to burn mdf files and all and they normally work. It's just this one file I got from friend that wont burn. Is there any coders here that might be able to make a utility? Hehe wheres bero when you need him?

[Hola]

Ohh and i'm trying to burn Gen+DC preview build 3. If I could just have a direct link to the plain files that would be nice seeing how no sites updated yet and still has the first release up.

You can get an SBI of preview 3 from here: http://consolevision.com/dreamcast/emus/genesis/

Ugh sbi files. Cant you get plain ones from that?
Also the sbi links are dead.

First of all, SBI files are simply plain files that have been zipped up with a few extra items added. If you rename an SBI file to have a ZIP extension, you can extract it. Then, simply find the BIN file (which will be inside the /Inducer/Emus/ directory), scramble it, and name it "1st_Read.bin".

Or, you could use SBInducer v4, and use the "SBI2Boot" function, which will do that automatically for you.

Anyway - you can get the SBI from Sbiffy!, too. The SBI file there is called "Genplus3_bO.sbi"

Well I tried to make plain files out of them but I just couldnt figure out the right structure.
