What is VCD file?
The .VCD file extension is used to store data on a Virtual CD (VCD) image file. VCDs are used in AUTHO, WinISO, and PowerISO as a way to store data in a single file, while preserving the formatting and layout of a traditional CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. Such files can be opened and read by many programs, allowing for CD-ROM data to be easily copied, shared, or viewed without having physical media. [ ⏩ ] VCD file extension
What is B5I file?
The B5I file extension is associated with BlindWrite, a software program designed for recording CD and DVD discs for archival purposes, copy protection, or distribution. This software uses B5I file type as a special form of image files with information about the content that is stored on the CD or DVD. The B5I files contain exact sector-by-sector copy of original optical discs, including audio tracks, disc structures and other featured details of CD and DVD media. [ ⏩ ] B5I file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from VCD to B5I?
To successfully convert the VCD file to B5I, 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.VCD). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case B5I (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 B5I).
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. VCD to B5I. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting VCD files to B5I 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 B5I, while before this step we had the VCD file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new B5I file, or not.
