The simple version:
1) split wavs to mono files
2) compress monos in Surcode to make MLP
3) import mlp to Disc Welder to Author a DVD-A
(You could author 1 DVD-A of several CDs from an artist / composer)
4) in Disc Welder save as iso. This will give tou a file with the extension .dim. Just change the letters d,i,m to 'iso' and away you go.
You can forgo steps 1 & 2 and simply authour with stereo wavs and not use MLP compression.

One of the disadvantages of playing FLAC files on my Oppo is the lack of gapless playback. A workaround is to create a single FLAC file, but then you lose track info and navigation between tracks. However, if you have an Oppo with firmware that supports ISO playback, you can play DVD-A, DVD-V, and BD ISOs gaplessly with menus, track info, and track navigation, exactly the same as playing the physical disc.
This got me to thinking whether you could author WAV/PCM files from a CD to DVD-A or even DVD-V format that would be gapless and have track info and track navigation. I would only be interested in converting redbook CD's so MLP compression is unnecessary, and size doesn't matter anyway since the end result I want is an ISO and I don't care whether it fits on a physical disc.
I don't have any experience authoring to DVD-A, is this something that's possible? I would only try this for some of my gapless recordings, but I would be interested to hear from some of the authoring experts whether this is something to pursue or totally off-base.
