How To Convert Multiple Bin Files To One Iso Repack ◆ | Official |

Workflow A — If BINs are split parts of one disc (with CUE)

If bchunk produces WAVs for audio tracks and you want a single combined data-only ISO, use mkisofs/xorriso to build a new ISO from the extracted files (see Workflow B).

Workflow B — If you want one ISO that merges multiple BINs (each a full disc image) into a single filesystem ISO

Verify by mounting combined.iso.

Workflow C — Mixed-mode or audio tracks must be preserved how to convert multiple bin files to one iso repack

Workflow D — Simple direct BIN→ISO (Windows, GUI)

The preservation and emulation of optical media, particularly CD-ROMs from the 1990s and early 2000s, often involves managing disk images stored in the BIN/CUE format. When a disc contains multiple data tracks, mixed audio, or subchannel data, ripping software frequently generates several BIN files paired with a single CUE sheet. This paper presents a systematic, technical procedure for consolidating multiple BIN files into a single, mountable ISO (International Organization for Standardization) image. The method prioritizes data integrity, cross-platform compatibility, and the preservation of original file systems while addressing common pitfalls such as audio track loss and multisession data.

bchunk -v image.cue image.iso

If you only have multiple .bin files without a .cue, create a simple .cue:

FILE "disc1.bin" BINARY
  TRACK 01 MODE1/2048
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
FILE "disc2.bin" BINARY
  TRACK 01 MODE1/2048
    INDEX 01 00:00:00

If your goal is to combine multiple ISO files into a single ISO, you can't directly merge them as you would with files in an archive. However, you can create a multi-disk ISO image or simply create a new ISO that includes files from multiple ISOs. If bchunk produces WAVs for audio tracks and

If you are archiving a rare disc or building a ROM set, follow this gold-standard repack workflow:
