Full Version: Mount cdrdao image on Mac OS X

Is it possibe to mount under Mac OS X the image of an audio CD generated by cdrdao?

Cdrdao generates a .bin file and a .toc file. I can use cdrdao to burn a CD-R from them without any problems, but I'd like to listen to them before writing.

Here's what I tried:

(1) Mounting the .bin image by itself. This works, but generates a disc with a single long audio track. The audio is correct, but the disc layout is lost (which was to be expected).

(2) Mounting with Roxio Toast 6. Toast can mount .bin/.cue files, but doesn't understand .toc files. The latter can be converted to .cue using toc2cue (which is bundled with cdrdao) or cueconvert. Toast mounts the result, and the resulting disc layout is correct, but the audio is awash in static, which suggests that the bytes were swapped, as the toc2cue utility warns.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

You can just convert the .bin to a WAV with sox

CODE
$ sox -t cdr data.bin CDImage.wav


If you want to check the track splits then:
CODE
$ cueconvert TOC.toc CDImage.cue


and then split with shntool/xACT

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I could do that, or I could just split it with bchunk. But that would not be the same thing as mounting the image, and it would not be a real preview of the CD.
