I have tried it like that but still I am never prompted to locate the AUDIO.BIN file, only a dialog box comes up telling me to input the starting LBA value, which I put in (actually that's not true, it comes up already in the box depending on the track selected), and then click "Aceptar" at which point the dialog box closes and nothing happens. The whole "bashing head against a brick wall" feeling has crept in all of a sudden... lain:StateS said:1.) In GDLister open up the toc and select the audio track which you wish to extract from the Audio.bin file (make sure that you have the toc and the audio.bin files in the same directory) then it should pop up a dialog or something that will ask you for the audio.bin and then the rest I think is pretty understandable already.
2.) Get the beginning and ending LBA for each audio track from the toc and then extract the CDDA tracks one-by-one...
True. But, Audacity is perfectly good for extracting the tracks with. And Cool Edit Pro has been pissing me off recently because it now crashes 99 times out of 100 when I exit the application normally (i.e. by clicking on the X button).StateS said:Anyway it's just that not everyone has or can afford Cool Edit Pro :cough: :cough: :cough: Me included, cause I'm dirt poor, yup, my parents work and I don't, meaning they make money and I don't, meaning they have money and I don't... :blush:
This means that when I go back into it, it pisses me off even more by asking me if I want to recover the previous session (even if I've already saved it before closing) and I'm sick and tired of it. Especially as it leaves loads of junk files in the Temp folder everytime. Uninstalling & reinstalling it might sort it out but I can't be bothered. Might try and make a switch to Audacity seeing as there's just been a new stable version of it released. And no, I'm not just saying this out of the blue. Cool Edit Pro is really annoying me to that extent (well, it happened with Trillian Pro, and I dumped that for Miranda IM - freeware - so it's not like this is new to me.)
Never managed it in the end. But I must say, the newer LITE-ON firmwares are worse than the old ones. I've found that with revisions CH11 and CH12, extraction of any GD-ROM data track at high speeds (16x in my case) wasn't possible without the drive pausing for about 10 seconds for every 10% of something extracted - this never happened with any prior releases and is annoying. Probably if I try and get any more DVD-ROM drives (at the moment my only realistic source is eBay) they will only be old ones.StateS said:About the games with the two data tracks...
Were you able to rip them? the second track I mean cause something struck me (i was half sleeping at the time), try to Insert the trap disc, read the toc, and extract the first data track, to let's say data1.iso or bin or whatever the extension is (forgot) after extracting the first one, insert the trap disc again, read the toc again and try extracting the second data track to a separate iso let's call this one data2.iso or whatever. I wonder if it will rip it to the end this way?
As if this experience with firmware revisions isn't proof enough of old stuff being better, I bet LG don't build their CD-ROM drives with as much accessibility in mind as they used to back in 1997 (i.e. putting all the drive assembly cables into one side of the PCB, meaning it can be flipped over with ease, and using simple plastic clips to hold the disc fastener in; try finding features like that on other drives! )

Thanks
