Galane Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 It loads but when i try to burn it gives me invalid field in parameter list. The cue sheets I have for the other three discs work fine, after a couple of edits to the file name entries.

ThaCrip Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I am no expert on cue files, but assuming the cue sheets are similar for your other discs that do work fine, can you post one of your cue sheets that does work? because then I 'might' be able to spot the problem. or at least give it a attempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Please don't do the above, it will mess things up. Once you've loaded the CUE in Write mode, click the 'Image Information' button and take a screenshot of what it says please. You may need to scroll the window and take a 2nd screenshot so I can see it all. Normally a drive will reject a cuesheet because a track is coming out as less than 4 seconds in length. So it could that be the program doesn't really like your CUE (pregaps for the next track at the end of individual track wav files are a bit complex) and a track length is being calculated incorrectly.

Galane Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 Sceenshots of info on the one that doesn't work and the sheet from the first disc which does work. Cowabunga Set 1 Ground Swells (1960-1963).cue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Well, I can't see any 4 second tracks but there are lots of 0 second (and frame) index 00's, which I guess is also a no-no. Maybe next track pregaps at the end of the previous track aren't supported at all? Could you fire up the 'create cue file' feature in the tools menu and add the first wave file from that set please? If I know exactly how long it it, I'll know if there should be data after the end of track 1 / index 01's supposed end (which would then form index 00 of track 2).

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Thank you. Well... you can't have a file of total length 02:00:13 and have something starting at 02:00:13... you're already at the end of the file. Looks like a bug in whatever made the cue/wav files. Easiest course of action here (assuming it's the same issue with all of the files) is just to remove all of the INDEX 00 entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a bug in whatever made the cue/wav files. Looking at a cue I made solely with ImgBurn's 'Tools > Create CUE File..." in relation to WAV files it does that on the 1st to 2nd track but the LBA seems right as it starts just after the previous track (i.e. in my case... 21355 (4:46:56) is end of 1st track and 21356 (4:46:56) is start of 2nd track). but it's the only one that does that (which is like the OP's). p.s. mine burned to a CD-R without issue and I even overburned by nearly 1 min on each 80min CD-R (I burned two maybe a half hour ago now) successfully. 24 minutes ago, LIGHTNING UK! said: Easiest course of action here (assuming it's the same issue with all of the files) is just to remove all of the INDEX 00 entries. Looking at mine... I don't even have those INDEX 00 entries like his does as they are all 'Index 1' in the 'Image Information' section, which seems to match up with your suggestion here Edited March 15, 2022 by ThaCrip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galane Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) I used all the wav files in imgburn to create a fresh cue sheet and I'm copying over the data it didn't include, the catalog number and songwriters. Doing that I noticed that the sheet I have has some of the performers not matching the band/group names. That makes the songwriter tags suspect. So I'm digging in on the web to try and find the right writer info. Some of those 20 tracks are quite difficult to find who wrote/composed them. Then I'll attempt to use this new cue sheet to burn an audio cd.

Galane Posted March 16, 2022 Author Share Posted March 16, 2022 Here's the finished new cue sheet which ImgBurn doesn't complain about. Would be nice if when kicking out the "invalid field in parameter list" error it would tell *exactly what text* it has a problem with, like it does when it runs into a file name in the cue sheet that doesn't match a file.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 'Invalid field in parameter list' comes directly from the drive, it isn't an ImgBurn error. ImgBurn doesn't know what it's complaining about... that's where I then diagnose the issue manually. I guess I could have it detect index 00's with no length, but the source program shouldn't have put them in the CUE in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
