2,048 bytes/sector =
data alone
2,352 bytes/sector =
data wrapped in
Sync,
Header,
Subheader,
EDC and
ECC. See diagram below:
If you burn it with the wrong sector size, your burner will either reject the burn, or you'll end up with a coaster if the burn goes through. Therefore, you should use

When you burn a 2,048 sector size ISO, your burner automatically generates and adds in the overhead mentioned above.
