Hey Guys, im new into this Scene and want to burn my CDI Files.

Little Backstory: Today my Dreamcast arrives and i loved it since I ever played. With the Dreamcast came the Cd-r´s.

My Problem: The Games wont work. My Dreamcast says "Insert Game Disc" . I used DiscJuggler 4 in Raw and burnspeed 4x.
I have a Pal dreamcast and no pal games, is this the problem?

Can ANYONE tell me what im doing wrong? I also have Alcohol but dont know how to use it.

Games that i tryed:

PSO (Shthack or so)
Utopia (many versions)
action replay (got it from here)

Pls help me!!

Well, make sure your burning info and not the CDI file itself into the disk.

I use alcohol 120%, i select recording manager and then i select a image file, from there i just pick record.

remmber to set the mode type in the advanced settings of discjuggler to Mode 2. Then it should work. Also make sure raw write is checked

ok, later this day i upload the pics for disk juggler and show u what i take when im burning something

is it because im taking cd-da? theres other stuff like cd-xa / cd-i and something else i cant remember

someone thinking that its a problem because im using a pal dreamcast and no pal games?

EDIT:

Im using 700mb / 80min cd-r´s, is that right? how i can find out that MY dreamcast is capable of burned games?
