I have an ISO file that was created out of an audio CD. I received this ISO from another computer and I don't have a CD burner.

I'd like to split the audio tracks in the ISO with a program such as abcde or using a more low level program such as cdparanoia. I've tried to mount the ISO but I saw this directory layout:

/media/doron/iso
├── 2C_AUDIO
│   ├── 2C_AREA1.TOC
│   ├── 2C_AREA2.TOC
│   ├── 2C_TAREA.2CH
│   ├── TRACK001.2CH
│   ├── TRACK002.2CH

│   ├── TRACK012.2CH
│   ├── TRACK013.2CH
│   └── TRACK014.2CH
├── MASTER1.TOC
├── MASTER2.TOC
├── MASTER3.TOC
└── SRM0.LST

1 directory, 21 files

All search results I've hit with the internet gave solutions for the reverse operation.

I know I can burn the ISO to a real CD and then read it with abcde but I don't have access to a CD burner/reader.

  • Can you try mounting the ISO as a loopback device? askubuntu.com/a/193632/612676 Commented Jan 15, 2019 at 11:47
  • Try converting those *.2ch files with ffmpeg -i /path/to/trackN.2ch trackN.flac; if that works, then you could also split them with the -ss and -t options of ffmpeg. If it doesn't, then please post some details about their format eg. hd -n32 trackN.2ch (are they DSD?) Commented Jan 15, 2019 at 12:47
  • I get Invalid data found when processing input when running the ffmpeg command. I don't have a hd command available, I use Arch Linux and I couldn't find such a command in the official repositories. When running file TRACK001.2CH I get only data. Commented Jan 15, 2019 at 15:25
  • From memory, you can't create an iso file containing multiple tracks. A single iso represents a single track. A link here seems to confirm that: club.myce.com/t/… Commented Jan 15, 2019 at 15:32

Mount the iso as loop, for that first of all enable the loop module in you system with:

modprobe loop

After that you would have to mount your iso as loop, using this sintax:

mount -o loop isoname.iso mountpoint

Example:

mount -o loop isoname.iso /mnt

You will notify that the iso content is read-only, so in case of wanting to have full access to the content, the best would be to copy it outside from the mountpoint with rsync.

Example:

rsync -a -H --exclude=TRANS.TBL /mnt /new_mount_point

  • The OP has already successfully mounted the ISO. This will necessarily have been done by using a loop-back. Commented Jan 15, 2019 at 12:03
