Appendix C –CD Creation hints & tips

CDs for Distribution

Many users ask how they should make CDs suitable for mass distribution. There are many software packages available for CD mastering. TEAC does not recommend any specific package over another. However there are some basic recommendations. These are:

For creating CD data discs for distribution, use ISO 9660 Mode 1 unless your application specifically requires CD-XA Mode 2. Error correction is higher in Mode 1, and legacy systems are more likely to be able to read this format.

If you intend to duplicate the disc, do not use UDF or Packet writing software (e.g. Direct CD, PacketCD, Spira). These types of disc contain bad blocks because of the way that the UDF system writes them. Masters containing bad blocks (intentional or not) are rejected as unreadable. Certain copy-protection systems utilise bad blocks, and since this equipment is not designed to defeat such systems (see illegal copying / piracy section at the front of this manual) they are rejected.
