| 7 | About |
| 8 | ----- |
| 9 | |
| 10 | This is a tool to convert cue/bin CD image to cue/cso/mp3 form, useful to use |
| 11 | with emulators. It can also create ISO instead of CSO and WAV instead of MP3. |
| 12 | Note that input must be .cue file, along with single .bin file. |

| 15 | Easy/Windows usage |
| 16 | ------------------ |
| 17 | |
| 18 | 1. Download LAME from http://lame.sourceforge.net/links.php#Binaries |
| 19 | You need an archive or "LAME Bundle" with lame.exe inside. Extract lame.exe |
| 20 | to the same directory as bin_to_cso_mp3.exe |
| 21 | 2. Find ciso.exe . It usually comes with ISO->CSO converters, for example yacc |
| 22 | (http://yacc.pspgen.com/). Extract ciso.exe to the directory from previous |
| 23 | step. |
| 24 | 3. Drag the .cue file you want to convert onto bin_to_cso_mp3.exe . It should |
| 25 | pop up console window with some scrolling text, which should close by itself |
| 26 | when done. After that you should see new directory with converted files. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | |
| 29 | Advanced usage |
| 30 | -------------- |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Just run bin_to_cso_mp3.exe from console terminal (or "command prompt") without |
| 33 | any parameters to see usage. |
| 34 | |

| 36 | Linux |
| 37 | ----- |
| 38 | |
| 39 | You will need to compile bin_to_cso_mp3.c yourself using gcc: |
| 40 | $ gcc bin_to_cso_mp3.c -o bin_to_cso_mp3 |
| 41 | |
| 42 | You will also need to have lame and ciso binaries in PATH. Those can sometimes |
| 43 | be installed using packet manager from the distribution, or you can compile |
| 44 | them from sources: |
| 45 | lame: http://lame.sourceforge.net/ |
| 46 | ciso: http://ciso.tenshu.fr/ |
