[Skip to 1:36] A narration by an assumingly intoxicated British Australian-American accented individual teaching us how to make a compression script for use with chdman.exe found in mame emulators into a single .exe archive that deletes its remnants after a successful .cue+.bin to .chd conversion.

All the tools are free.

Google up: chdman.exe
http://letmegooglethat.com/?q=chdman....

You're going to need this in order to initiate the commands to start the conversion process.

1:36 - Rip your disc with Imgburn:

2:00 - Create your icon (if you even choose to, otherwise skip this part)

4:23 - Download Ultimate Icon Converter:

4:37 - Here's exactly what you need to type in order to make these two batch files.
In notepad type:

for /r %%i in (*.cue, *.gdi) do chdman createcd -i "%%i" -o "%%~ni.chd"

Save this as "CUE to CHD.bat"

5:38 - Now for the delete code. This will remove everything this file adds to your computer other than the extracted files and files to be extracted. The files created in this video are the ones to be deleted!

Now for the delete.bat.
Type:

@echo off
del "chdman.exe" /f /q /a
del "CUE to CHD.bat" /f /q /a
del "del.bat" /f /q /a

Save it as "del.bat"

Here's a glance at those .bat files on a post-it note for some reason:

Follow the rest of the "Instructions" in the video. (Quotation marks due to questionable teaching techniques; satire, but visually accurate).
