how do I burn .BIN DC images?
I have tried numerous programs, and I still cannot seem to get .BIN dreamcast games to work. Everytime I use CDRWIN, or Alcohol 120%, it burns it as an audio CD for some reason, I am not sure why. Everytime I pop it in my dreamcast, it brings it up as an audio cd, and it is just a bunch of fuzz sound when you hit play. Please help if you can. Sorry if this is not in the right section to post this.

To: Juan - no. I was not asking about warez. I am not sure where you derived that from.
To: Fragger - It is for some reason in .BIN format, and I am trying to burn it every which way, and it always comes out as an audio cd when I put it in the dreamcast. It comes with a .cue and all, but I am not sure which prog I should use to burn it.
thanks, atticus

How about model year and region number. Contrary to what some may believe, not dreamcasts run cdr's. They will show as audio cds on the dreamcast.
Most legit emu and home brew discs are prepared for discjuggler. This is not *.cue/*.bin which is most likely alcohol 120%. *.nrg is Nero and *cdi is discjuggler. DCemu.co.uk is a great source for your homebrew and emu collection. Bootdreams is a great utility to get these discs made and bootable for the dreamcast.

Perhaps, but how many releases in the DC Homebrew scene are actually in CUE and BIN? I would assume little to none. Anything would be friendlier to him at the moment than what he already has.There is no real friendly format. Each one has its own quirks.

Generally speaking, if the Dreamcast is at fault, it's because it has an updated BIOS that won't allow booting from CDs. If the Dreamcase does allow booting from CDs, then it's probably just a bad burn. Burning at lower speed usually helps.
CUE + BIN images are not, and can not be self booting. They're also, more likely than not, warez. Homebrew is typically distributed as either CDI images, or plain files.
