Hello.
I have just got hold of a modded white saturn and would like to try burning some games for it.
The guide on the site seems to be down so any help would be great.
Format is ISO and a cue + lots of mp3s.
Im just about to try a Bin cue burn.
Thankyou.

Well toast had no problem with the bin cue format, It worked first time.
Now just need to work out isos and cues.

I'll say that I can't help you directly, I don't do burning, but I think THIS is the link you were looking for.

It seems to be about Sega CD, but it was roughly the same link on the racketboy page that wouldn't go through. There's more on that site too, hope it's helpful.

I could kiss you, its working. Actually using toast 5.2 you dont have to convert the oggs as it does it for you.
So simple when you know how.
Thanks again.

Edit, you do have to convert them to wav, then toast converts them to aiff. But its still pretty easy.

No problemo. I stopped accepting kisses long ago: bad memories.

I wonder how to do this with Toast 7....

I have a linux commandline script that I modified to work on OSX. It works for bin/cue, iso/mp3, etc. Basically anything but MDF, which is the bane of my OSX existence.

I hate MDFs on Windows anyway.
Why rip to anything but BIN/CUE?

Lol, use google you noob. 7z is just another type of compression like zip, sit, rar, gzip, but is more intensive than any of those. Its commonly used in Emulation circles for multiple romsets of a single game, but most emulators don't support them in a MAME like fashion. Anyways... theres a couple 7z options for mac, but I prefer Drop7zip http://emulation.victoly.com/download/Drop7Zip_1.08.zip

I know what they are. I have not seen drop7zip before so thanks for that, noob.

yeah, neohx_7, no need to be an ass about it. There really aren't any good gui 7zip options for mac, although I haven't tried this drop7zip yet. I've tried Compress, EZ 7z, and 7zX, and all of them suck. I always just end up using 7za on command-line, which works, but is a bit lame. Searching on google for "7z osx" doesn't bring up anything about drop7zip, sorry.
