Talking I can't copy it in k3b


I download Games that I burn for Grandkids to play.........Have a Problem in Linux as follows:

Some of the games have 2 CDS
Sometimes the CD1 is listed as 751mb or more,............and we all know that Most cds only holds 700 mb.
k3b............Won't copy a cd over 700 mb...........BUT
iF I go to Ultra ISO in windows...........It still shows the bin file as 751 mb but brings the file size to 653 mb...........and Bingo..........I can make an Image that is 653 mb & then I can Burn it. !!!!!

In k3b.........The Cue file is an Image, already.....Right??...........But I can't copy it in k3b. Because k3b shows over 700 mb.

I have Libdvdcss2 installed & updated.

If you understand this, Please Help, Thanks

Please do not ask how to remove copy protection from games - this is illegal in some countries and as such it is against the forum rules to discuss it here.

I do not know where you have got that illusion from, but there are CDs with 800MB (90 min) as well. Just go to your local computer store and ask for them - if they do not have them, they do not deserve the label "computer store".

BUT if you use illegal downloads (which they probably are), then you should refrain from proceeding to burn the games to CDs! It is illegal and it damages the software industry. However, that does not bother most people who believe that deceiving insurance companies is all right in some way and that "small amounts" do not affect the system - well, they DO!

Think about it the next time your insurance policies become more expensive or CD/DVD prices are higher.

I got UltraISO working with Wine & works great.

Just a Shame we have to use windows programs in Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy.

And to the guy who wrote me the E-Mail, Thank You
