1833, mp3 burning and cue files
Posted by Vandy420a, Jan-25-06 12:06 PM
hey all! Haven't been in here in a while..

anyways, I have a question and i'm totally lost here...

I downloaded an entire cd from a friend--its his mix--and it came with a "cue" file. Basically its just one huge MP3 and a text file with tracks and times. How do I burn it to a cd and have the tracks broken up by the cue file?

thanks!

Use Alcohol 120% to mount the cue file, then use your burning software to do a cd to cd copy.

When you mount the cue file, it should appear as though you inserted a disk into a CD-ROM, which you should be able to play each track.

If you need the program, e-mail me luke at 69cougar dot com

do that or if you already have nero burning rom, you can use the image burn option.

Hes definately correct, the bin/cue format is a common format that Nero can handle.
