  1. I could really go either way. Create an IMAGE file from files and then burn it or go Files direct to DVD burn. The reason I wanted to do the IMAGE file option is to be able to get a SHA256 hash from the ISO I created. I was kinda concerned that the extra burn area was "junk" padding and could be something malicious. Who knows.. just my paranoid mind playing on me. Like if I was to say, that 1/8 of the disc was used (burnt) for the files and 2/3 of the disc was used (burnt) for the ISO with the same files, it creates concern. I think you may have answered my question though. It probably is padding and nothing more.
  2. Another example is with Clonezilla. The file size is 300MB and it is an ISO (Image) file. When I burn it to DVD at a individual data file, it'll show a burn ring of 3mm thick. However, when I burn the file as an Image to DVD, the burn ring will be 13mm thick.
  3. Hi and thanks for your reply. Is there a minimum burn ring (size on disk) for ISO files? For example, if I burn 250MB, 10MB, 1MB, or 1GB, are they going to have the same burn ring if I burn an image?
  4. Hi, I'm burning 3 files with different methods using IMGBurn. First, I am creating an image with the files, using "Create image file from files/folders" and then burning it to disc, using "Write image file to disc". Secondly, I am just adding the 3 files to a new "Write files/folders to disc" and then proceeding to the burning it to disc. All situations are to finalize DVD. I have noticed that the discs once complete, have different size burn rings. The one that is using "Write image file to disc option" is 12mm thick and the one with the 3 individual files burned using "Write files/folders to disc option" is 5mm thick. Why does this happen? What extra stuff is it burning to the disc? The image file is the same size as the 3 files collectively. Thanks, Darryl
