I could not find an existing solution to burning all .CDI file types easily on Linux or Mac OS X. Settling with Windows and IMGburn did not make sense to me, so I created Dreamcast CDI Burner. A collection of open source software (CDIrip, CDRtools, along with my own cdib script) that can be built entirely from source with just one command and burn bootable CD-ROMs from any .CDI file on Linux and Mac OS X.
Dreamcast CDI Burner supports all 4 Sega Dreamcast CDI File format types.
- Data ISO+data ISO
- WAV+data ISO
- Multiple CDDA WAVs+data ISO
- Multiple CDDA WAVs in an ISO+data ISO
I have 2 releases already compiled available, one for Fedora 33 Linux x86_64 and the other is for PowerPC Mac OS X 10.3.9-10.6.8 (works on Intel with the Rosetta software). For Mac OS X 10.7+ and other Linux distros, you need to compile from source which is made very easy with Dreamcast CDI Burner. Just download the source download on the website, and execute the build-all command in the source. That's it, everything is installed and your ready to burn. Please visit the official website (first link in this post) for more information and downloads.

Haha, me from 2018 would have loved this, but these days I'm using Windows.
Either way, thanks for making this

Really nice to see this done. I have a Windows box these days and just use DiscJuggler, but when I used a Mac for this purpose I always ran Windows+DJ in a virtual machine because the burning scripts that exist are unreliable for some types of disc images.
It's thinking...

Re: Dreamcast CDI Burner For Linux & Mac OS X, Burn All CDI File Types With Open Source Software
I'm really struggling with finding a solution for modern Macs - either Intel or less likely M1, both using external burners, since Macs ditched internal burners years ago. Is there anyone who has experience with this and could help? I was determined to find a solution, but absolutely all information I could find online reference long dead and/or unsupported software (PowerPC). I got excited when I found this, but then saw the caveat that it can't use an external burner, which rules out every Mac made within the last several years.
