Writing CDs from FLAC Files with ImgBurn CD Audio

When editing cue sheets, it's essential to consider the compatibility of software used for writing CDs. A common issue arises when trying to write a CD using a program that doesn't support non-compliant CUE sheets, such as Nero. However, there are alternative programs like Burrrn that can work with EAC's incompatible CUE sheets.

To get started, you'll need to edit the cue sheets after extracting and compressing your files. One common issue people face is replacing the file extension in the cue sheet from '.wav' or 'WAVE' to '.flac' or 'FLAC', respectively. This change allows for compatibility with different compression formats. For instance, if you're using FLAC files, you'll need to replace '.wav' and 'WAVE' with '.flac' and 'FLAC'.

However, it's crucial to note that EAC cannot use FLAC files directly for writing CDs. You may need to decode the FLAC files to WAVE first or use alternative burning software. To make this process easier, you can open the cue sheet in a text editor like Notepad and run find/replace.

By following these steps and choosing compatible software like Burrrn, you'll be able to successfully write CDs from your extracted and compressed files. Remember to replace file extensions as needed to ensure compatibility with different compression formats. With the right approach, you can enjoy the benefits of FLAC compression while still being able to write your CDs using a variety of software.
