CDI images

Hi, I'm a newbie.

Run the bios with Chankast it's quite exciting :bouncy: but I want to run some games.
I have read the tutorial about how to make homebrew games bootable but I get lost into it.

I would like to know how to burn .cdi images into dvds with Nero or DiskJuggler. I have tried DiskJuggler with all configurations but at the end it sais the dvd is empty if I explore it with windows. If I try to mount a virtual image of "starsdemo.iso" or I burn it into a DVD it also doesn't work. The only I can see is the track screen if I do this things but I cannot play something. Is maybe the using of dvds instead cds the wrong thing?

//Another question is if it will be possible in a future that Chankast could run images instead of a cd/dvd.
Sorry about that stupid question above, but now I'm very confused because in some threads I read that is possible to load images but I cannot. What happens here?!

Please help and thankyou.

PD: is Chankast team from Spain?

Install ASPI from adaptec, or use ForceASPI 1.17.
Reboot.
Play.
You can also mount images via daemon-tools (recommended). HDD transfer rate > DVD

Ok. If it's not very hard to you, could you explain every step I have to do?
I only have a DVD rewritable unit and I would like to write on DVD. I have DiskJuggler, Nero, and ExtraDrive Creator to manage virtual units. I tried DiskJuggler burning the image, but at the end the DVD was empty like.
Please help.

All right, that's it. I have converted cdi to nero. Now I can run the nero image with nero imagedrive and play it with Chankast. Great emu!!

What are you talking about? I don't understand. I know Virtua Tennis 2 is a little slow (over 25 FPS), but with my GeForce 5200 (not a very good card, specially in what concerns to RAM) I can play it.
Do you mean that Sonic Adventure is slower than VT2?

no sonic adventure 2 has some graphics issues for us NVidia users, I know nothing of VT2, I hate tennis games, though it might be compatibilty issues.
