What is CCD file?
The CCD file extension is associated with the CloneCD software application. It is a data backup tool that creates compressed images of optical discs onto the hard drive. This data can be read by other programs that are capable of burning CD's, such as Nero and Engrave. By creating this image, it ensures that the disc does not become damaged, scratched or worn out. Technical Description The CCD file extension is used for the CloneCD Disc Image format. [ ⏩ ] CCD file extension
What is CDI file?
The CDI file extension is used in DiscJuggler, a data-burning software used to create images of CD-ROMs. This type of file stores a disc image, which is an exact representation of the contents of the source disc in a single file. CDIs are the same as DCCs and C2D images, though CDI, DCC, and C2D are some of the most universally supported formats. The exact content of each CD image is stored in the CDI file. Technical Details The format was created by Padus Inc. [ ⏩ ] CDI file extension
How to convert the file from CCD to CDI?
To successfully convert the CCD file to CDI, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.CCD). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CDI (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CDI).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. CCD to CDI. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting CCD files to CDI files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CDI, while before this step we had the CCD file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CDI file, or not.
