Check www.gamecopyworld.com for a Cd to dvd conversion tool, unless there is a dvd version of the same game/app/movie/music, in which case, grab the dvd version. Simpler and I hear that cd to dvd conversion tools sometimes fuck up the file structures and shit...I dont know this mind u as I think Ive only once used one of those tool.

Or try www.vcdhelp.com, they have good shit that i think will explain what u want Smile

I agree with using this as well. Used it a few times myself. The author had a site www.cd-2-dvd.com but at the moment it's dead.

Ah this is really easy.

You need a few tools tho. 1st grab something like MagicISO or a smiliar program that can extract all the files from a *.iso or *.bin file. Use this porgram to extract all the files from
each of the cd's bin or iso file. If you have already burned the cd's and no longer have the original bin/iso files then just copy the entire contents of each cd into a folder of your choosing

2nd, go and get Masaieditor. There is a free trial version, use Google to find it. You may not
always need to use the Masaieditor, but usually you do. If after you have extracted all the files from the bin/iso files and you see files that have an *.msi extenesion, the you will most likely need to use Masaieditor. Open up each *.msi file (there can be 1 or several) with Masai, once the file is load, look down the left hand colulm for the "MEDIA" tag. Click on it
and in the preview pane you will see what label the installation files are expecting. Change this to whatever you want, say "DVD1". Then save the file without updating the tables. Do this for all of the *.msi files.

Now that that is done, use Nero to dump all the file from your folder into the burn qqueue and make sure that the dvd label matches what you specified when editing with Masai.

I do ALL of my games on DVD only. There are som exceptions that need further hacks, but any multi cd game is easily ported to dvd...

good luck
