8 | -----\r |
9 | \r |
10 | This is a tool to convert cue/bin CD image to cue/cso/mp3 form, useful to use\r |
11 | with emulators. It can also create ISO instead of CSO and WAV instead of MP3.\r |
12 | Note that input must be .cue file, along with single .bin file.\r |

15 | Easy/Windows usage\r |
16 | ------------------\r |
17 | \r |
18 | 1. Download LAME from http://lame.sourceforge.net/links.php#Binaries\r |
19 | You need an archive or "LAME Bundle" with lame.exe inside. Extract lame.exe\r |
20 | to the same directory as bin_to_cso_mp3.exe\r |
21 | 2. Find ciso.exe . It usually comes with ISO->CSO converters, for example yacc\r |
22 | (http://yacc.pspgen.com/). Extract ciso.exe to the directory from previous\r |
23 | step.\r |
24 | 3. Drag the .cue file you want to convert onto bin_to_cso_mp3.exe . It should\r |
25 | pop up console window with some scrolling text, which should close by itself\r |
26 | when done. After that you should see new directory with converted files.\r |
27 | \r |
28 | In case it complains about missing lame.exe even after you copied it, try\r |
29 | copying lame.exe and ciso.exe somewhere in your PATH, i.e. Windows directory.\r |
30 | \r |
31 | If it crashes ("this program needs to close blabla"), you probably have bad\r |
32 | .cue or missing .bin file.\r |
33 | \r |
34 | \r |
35 | Advanced usage\r |
36 | --------------\r |
37 | \r |
38 | Just run bin_to_cso_mp3.exe from console terminal (or "command prompt") without\r |
39 | any parameters to see usage.\r |
40 | \r |
41 | \r |
42 | Linux\r |
43 | -----\r |
44 | \r |
45 | You will need to compile bin_to_cso_mp3.c yourself using gcc:\r |
46 | $ gcc bin_to_cso_mp3.c -o bin_to_cso_mp3\r |
47 | \r |
48 | You will also need to have lame and ciso binaries in PATH. Those can sometimes\r |
49 | be installed using packet manager from the distribution, or you can compile\r |
50 | them from sources:\r |
51 | lame: http://lame.sourceforge.net/\r |
52 | ciso: http://ciso.tenshu.fr/\r |
