.TH BCHUNK 1 "v1.2.2 14 Nov 2017" "Heikki Hannikainen"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
bchunk \- CD image format conversion from bin/cue to iso/cdr
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B bchunk [-v] [-p] [-r] [-w] [-s] <image.bin> <image.cue> <basename>
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B bchunk
|
|
converts a CD image in a ".bin / .cue" format (sometimes ".raw / .cue") to a
|
|
set of .iso and .cdr tracks.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The bin/cue format is used by some non-Unix cd-writing
|
|
software, but is not supported on most other cd-writing
|
|
programs.
|
|
.LP
|
|
image.bin is the raw cd image file. image.cue is the
|
|
track index file containing track types and offsets.
|
|
basename is used for the beginning part of the created
|
|
track files.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The produced .iso track contains an ISO file system, which can be
|
|
mounted through a loop device on Linux systems, or
|
|
written on a CD-R using cdrecord.
|
|
The .cdr tracks are in the native CD audio format. They can
|
|
be either written on a CD-R using cdrecord \(hyaudio, or converted
|
|
to WAV (or any other sound format for that matter) using
|
|
sox.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The output type depends on the input type (data is just copied).
|
|
If the input is in ISO format, the output will be. On the other
|
|
hand, if the input is raw audio data, the output will be CDR or
|
|
WAV (the latter if \(hyw is given).
|
|
.LP
|
|
It is advisable to edit the .cue file to either MODE2/2352/2048 or
|
|
MODE2/2352/2324 depending on whether an ISO filesystem or a VCD is
|
|
desired, respectively.
|
|
The format itself does not contain this feature and in an ambiguous
|
|
case it can only guess.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.BI \-v
|
|
Makes binchunker print some more unnecessary messages, which should
|
|
not be of interest for anyone.
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.BI \-w
|
|
Makes binchunker write audio tracks in WAV format.
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.BI \-s
|
|
Makes binchunker swap byte order in the samples of audio tracks.
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.BI \-p
|
|
Makes binchunker go into PSX mode and truncate MODE2/2352 tracks to
|
|
2336 bytes at offset 0 instead of normal 2048 bytes at offset 24.
|
|
Use this option if input is in PSX mode.
|
|
.TP 10
|
|
.BI \-r
|
|
Makes binchunker output MODE2/2352 tracks in raw format, from offset
|
|
0 for 2352 bytes. Good for MPEG/VCD. Use this option if input is in
|
|
raw format.

.SH FILES
|
|
.LP
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B image.bin
|
|
Raw CD image file
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B image.cue
|
|
TOC (Track index, Table Of Contents) file
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B *.iso
|
|
Tracks in ISO9660 CD filesystem format. Can be either written on a
|
|
CD-R using cdrecord, or mounted (on Linux platforms at least)
|
|
through a loop device ('mount track.iso /mnt/cdrom \(hyo loop=/dev/loop0,blocksize=1024').
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B *.cdr
|
|
Audio tracks in native CD audio format. They can be either written on a
|
|
CD-R using 'cdrecord \(hyaudio', or converted to WAV (or any other sound
|
|
format for that matter) using sox ('sox track.cdr track.wav').
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B *.wav
|
|
Audio tracks in WAV format.
