Karaoke woes.

I have been trying for 2 days now, i need to fully copy a karaoke disk. does anyone know a way of doing so?

remember, these disks not only have music, but words display on screen too.

thanx in advance.

The only thing I can think of is to create an image of the disc and then burn the image.

will try, thanx.

i tried the "make exact copy" and such, to no avail.
will let you know.

Often the "exact copy" isn't as exact as making an image. You never know.

Use CloneCD and just do a "cloning" of the CD. I can get you the program if you want since they don't make it naymore and the new version that is out is actually a BIGTIME spyware package. let me know.

On the site of Daemontools, there's lots of info about different
security systems for cd's, and how to bypass them. (for backup purposes
only, of course ! :smile: )

have you tried it to make a disk of this type? and "get"

i am sure i have a copy someplace, but it would/could be faster if you got it to me.

i also have alcohol 120, anyone think it could do it?

alcohol 120% is a good program for creating images of cd's.

If you use it be careful cos some games wont run with it installed because it's used to copy all sorts of games and programs.

[Edit]
good timing on asking about alcohol 120% orph cos i was just typing this as you posted.

it makes a copy of ANY type of CD. I have never tried a Karaoke, but it has done those music CD's with bonus Cd-ROM stuff and it has done VCD's alright. I am almost positive that it will work for you. If not i have other progs like "Blindread" that copies it bit-by-bit instead of file-by-file. How do i get CloneCD to you? Email a ZipFile? what address?

how big is it?

try

drs_orpheus@msn.com will handle 10 meg files i think.
guthrun@sbcglobal.net will handle 15 meg files i think.
orpheus@ejoop.com capacity unknown.

just let me know where you sent it to.

if larger, i can grant you access to my briefcase, but this is a last resort.

it is 2.58 MB. In the ZIP file is the installer and the k3yG3n. i am pretty sure that they keygen plays some cool music too! lol I will send it to the SBC one.

oh yeah and you'll have to add the .zip to the end

please zip it before you send it, my emails auto-delete any .exe files.

I know. Mine deletes anything with a .ZIP. so i took the extension off the end of the file name. You'll have to add it back when it gets to you, because right now there is no extension! Hope it all works for you did u get it yet?

not unless you sent it 2 times.
.rar it, or .ace it.. or... i can just dig it up myself from my own stash. :biggrin:

so you DIDN'T get it? I'll RAR it.

the file was once again empty, save the 2 text files.

do not worry, i will dig it up out of my own stash.. i am just a lazy ass of late.
thanx for all the trouble.

[edit] it helps once you learn exactly what to search for (thanx forceflow)

the format is known as CD+G.. there are multiple sites via google.

thanx again for the assistance.

It wasn't supposed to be TEXT files inside I put 2 EXE's in there!

upon examination, it seems my (or your) email handler put the text files in there.

FILE DELETED

---

Antigen for Exchange removed Clone CD->Clonecd4.0.0.1kg.exe since it

was found to match the FILE FILTER= *.exe file filter.

if you still need it, i'll send it from my hotmail account.

nah, i have found out (just about 10 minutes ago) that my cd burner, doesn't support the format. i cannot even load it. my cd says its empty, even with a disk in the drive.

thanx bud.

oh. that sucks. It's not TOO important is it? I could probably copy it for you if you really needed me to. you can stop by on your way to oregon, I live pretty close to Jonesboro. I don't gather it's that importnant, but I am offering as a show of my appreciation of your kindness to me when i was a n00b, and your helpful editing comments that have helped me in the past. AND while i'm at it, I respect your calm nature during flamewars.

oh please stop, you'll have my enemies puking in a moment :heee:
nah, it was just a small project i was working on. i found everything i need... except the hardware. unless you plan on sending me a burner that happens to use the format, i don't see any taboo karaoke in my immediate future.

I think the real question here is; Orph what are you doing with karaoke?

tis wifes really. she got the machine for Xmas, and i bought her an electric guitar. she wants to learn to play and read the words at the same time.

its a girl thing i guess. shrugs
sadly, my burner cannot do the job so the question was rendered moot.
