man I so suck so badly with computers. I tried burning a live set the other with a cue sheet and had no idea how. Anf will you come over one day and give Sid a tutorial :(
eRRaTiK
yeh sid no probs man.

i assume you've got nero right?

make sure you have both cue file and music file in the same directory, and also that the cue file doesn't point to any directories that don't exist (open it up in a text editor like notepad to check it out).

for example:

code:
PERFORMER "DJ Soups" FILE "download_my_mix.mp3" MP3


GOOD.

code:
PERFORMER "DJ Soups" FILE "c:\random\directory\download_my_mix.mp3" MP3


BAD.

You can modify the cue file and delete any reference to directory.

Once that's done...

There's also a >> cue file tutorial << in the COR but the above site is easy to understand, has pics, and gets the job done.

ok creating a cue sheet and splitting the file into individual tracks are two different things.

creating a cue sheet

with winamp - use mp3cue
without winamp - use cue sheet compiler

links to both apps in the first post of this thread.

alternatively you can create one from notepad (if you cbf). refer to the cue tutorial in the COR for more info on how .cue files work.

splitting a file

ok you'll need a cue sheet.

1. either download an existing cue (search the sites listed by BinaryRefined and/or check out the tracklist forums here on TA) or create one using any of the methods/tools listed above.

2. get musiCutter. small, free and easy to use. just select the file, select the cue sheet, define your output directory and voila!

Once again Exact Audio Copy ^^ as i mentioned before

Just open it up, CD data loads then click on the "IMG" button on the left. BTW, if it s the rip up - try this.. go to EAC Menu top left -> Drive Options and try changing the drive read command to "Read Command MMC1 "
