  1. Hello, I was using DVDD 3.5.4.0 and saw ImgBurn 1.1.0.0, which I installed. I declined to uninstall DVDD when it asked, however. Does the "engine" for ImgBurn in any way affect the choice of a layer break in DVDD when I burn with DVDD and open the .MDS file which I created with DVDD? (EDIT - note that the .MDS was created when reading the disc to an ISO image - I did not use the separate option to create a .MDS file, which I realize does NOT parse ISO files to find the original LB position) I ask because, despite installing ImgBurn, I decided to continue using DVDD to burn some dual layer images I had read to my HD with DVDD. As usual I opened the .MDS file and in the LOG it showed that it was using the VOBU/ECC method of finding the optimal layer break position, instead of "copied from original image" like it always used to. So, is there a .DLL file that ImgBurn installed that overwrote what DVDD was using and is not affecting the choice of layer break position in DVDD? This happened for a total of 4 images now.....did DVDD just burn them in the dumb ISO mode and ignore the .MDS information? Thanks, Ford Man
  2. Ok, that's cool. Just to really point it out though... look at the 'NOTE:' line in the log. The actual data within the sector has compared just fine, it's the error correction stuff that's now different. Most drives totally ignore those bytes within the sector, on the fly when you burn - unless you burn in RAW mode (which I'm not). The drive then recalculates the data and burns the correct EDC/ECC data. So if you've not changed the image since it was first made, the program you used to create it hasn't done a very good job - because you drive is correcting what it has done! (That is a little weird though as it looks like you're using Microsoft's internal ISO building util!)
  3. i was just wondering if it is possible for you to create an exact copy of something using only imgburn and if so how?
  4. Imgburn does it for you .You can also burn the MDS file and if one doesn't exist you can create one.Tools ---> create dvd MDS file
  5. sorry if this is a stupid question - but is there a guide on what and how to create a layer break or does imgburn do that for you?
  6. Try opening it in Shrink, File> Open Disc Image or something close to that, and if it does open you can create a new ISO that should work. It certainly appears that there's something funny with the ISO. The fact that Nero does work is strange, but Nero is strange at the best of times.
  7. My first attempts of burning an image (.iso) file using a number of tools has been disasterous. I didn't save the log but noticed DVDD failed at exactly 50%. I had one "success" but the DVD would not play. I started to try IMGBurn and noticed the TOOLS/ISO/Display IFO Layer Break Info/ tool. For the problem image I get: -------------------------------- Optimal L1 Data Zone Start LBA: not found! VTS_01 This image has not been mastered correctly for burning on to a double layer (OTP track path) disc. None of the cells meet the 'DVD-Video Specification' criteria for a potential layer break position. -------------------------------- Will I ever be able to burn this image to a DL? (I can't re-rip it and its 8+ GB and too big to shrink to a DVD+R). Is there anything that I can do? I used IMGTool Classic to create the ISO image. I got a warning that it was larger than a DVD5 and asked 'Do you still want to continue'. When creating the ISO image is there any software or procedure that is recommended?
  8. ImgBurn has a whole load of new code to do with layerbreak stuff. DVD Decrypter was 'stupid' in this area - as such, that error message didn't even exist in it. You cannot just magically create a layerbreak within an ISO file. Files have to start at the exact sector to allow a cell to meed the criteria required for a layerbreak position. So although the burn (and verify) went ok, you may have a problem at the layer change on your standalone dvd players. Basically what I can see from your log is that the main VTS group is probably VTS_06 and within that, there are no cells in any of the PGC's that start on an LBA that's a multiple of 16.

    Million $ Man

    From: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4585026.stm It took a 21-year-old a few minutes to come up with an idea which has made him more than one million dollars in four months. So what's his secret? It started with a blank notepad, an overdraft and a shortage of socks. Creator & Creation Now it's a million-dollar business. Last August, as a three-year degree loomed, Alex Tew lay on his bed in his family home in Cricklade, Wiltshire. It was time for his nightly brainstorming session. This time, the problem was his finances. He already had an overdraft, which was sure to multiply at university, and he felt his poverty was reflected by his lack of decent, or matching, socks. The first thing he wrote in his pad was "How can I become a millionaire?" Twenty minutes later, the Million Dollar Homepage idea was born. It was selling pixels, the dots which make up a computer screen, as advertising space, costing a dollar per dot. The minimum purchase was $100 for a 10x10 pixel square to hold the buyer's logo or design. Clicking on that space takes readers to the buyer's website. With $999,000 banked so far, Alex recalls his thought process at the time. He says: "I wrote the title to spark the creativity and then wrote down the attributes the idea needed. It had to be simple to set up and understand. "It had to have a name to capture the imagination and be something that could be set up quickly with no physical delivery required. "I wrote down some keywords and then the idea came out 20 minutes later - selling pixels. So I snapped up the domain name that very night." Snowballing Alex spent ?50 on buying the domain name ( www.milliondollarhomepage.com ) and a basic web-hosting package. He designed the site himself but it began as a blank page. His friends and family paid the first $1,000 dollars, which he spent on a press release. That small publicity gave his site more traffic, which in turn persuaded more advertisers to have faith. An iconic image of internet art? "It snowballed," he says. "As I made money, more people talked about it and the more people talked about it, the more money I made." Four months and 2,000 customers later, including The Times and Orange, and the million dollars is almost surpassed. Two million different people have accessed the site, which has a wry blog and FAQs, in the last seven days. "I've been blown away. These have been the most exciting and hectic months of my life. Things are quite surreal at the moment and because it's been so busy it hasn't really sunk in. "It seems like Monopoly money. Previously I'd associated money with working at Tesco getting paid ?5 an hour." His first business venture was when, aged eight, he drew comics and sold them at school. He had no intention of going to university because he wanted to try out some of his ideas. eBay twist But after three years of odd jobs such as stacking shelves in Tesco, and setting up some websites, like humanbeatbox.com, which led to a cameo part in EastEnders, he decided on a degree. Yet before he'd even started his business management course at Nottingham University, he was on his way to earning a million dollars. Employing a press officer has helped generate publicity and sales in the US, where he spent a week doing interviews, and he thinks his own honesty in setting out his million-dollar plan chimes more with the Americans than with British reserve. His last 1,000 pixels will be sold on Wednesday on eBay, in a clever and lucrative twist to the story. At the time of writing, bidding was an astonishing $152,100, which reflects how much demand has outstripped available space. "I didn't want to create another page because I wanted to keep the space exclusive, that's one of the attractions for buyers. It will be quite lucrative for me, but it's the best option because I didn't want to turn away people who wanted to be part of it and the increased cost they'll pay will hopefully be value for money because of all the interest in the last 1,000 pixels." Far from being part of a gimmick, Alex says his advertisers have been more than happy with their investment. And Chris Magras, the president of US website promotion company Engineseeker.com, confirms that his $6,400 was cash well spent. "Our leads and sales have increased by 30% and the traffic has not stopped," he says. "The buy was perfect for a one time source of continued advertising and has paid for itself in its first month." Alex believes his success - and there are hundreds of other similar sites trailing in his wake - is down to two things: the power of word of mouth and the story of a student making a million, which enchanted the media. Others eager to learn from him should have faith in their creative mind, take calculated and affordable risks, and treat "failure" in a positive way, as a learning process, he says. When the last square is sold, the homepage mosaic will be complete, a kind of visual metaphor for the internet. One writer has even quipped that it could be a potential Turner Prize nominee. "One of my original aims was to create a piece of internet art that reflects what's current on the internet and what's possible, because I've made a million from that image. I want to create an internet capsule to keep for years." Typically, he already has an enterprising avenue in his head - selling the image as poster prints. A millionaire's proud purchase Staying one step ahead of the pack seems instinctive to him and Alex is good natured, although dismissive, about the other sites which have sprung up since. And his other ideas - strictly under wraps - could be coming to fruition. "We're still in the internet's early days. Commerce will be streamlined and based around this global network. There are things that don't exist now and will exist in the future. Who will be the next Friends Reunited and the next Google?" With money to back him, he's in a good position, although he's got plenty to ponder - job offers and investment opportunities from around the world, and whether to finish his degree. In the meantime, student life goes on as normal with no extra expectation for Alex to get the drinks in. He's already splashed out on a mini and a trip to Tokyo for his parents as a "thank-you" and his mother, a registrar, will become his part-time PA. And new socks? His favourites cost ?3 and their design is, appropriately, pixellated.
  10. burntaonce will create iso files from data. It is free and a frontend for mkisofs. The gui is also simple and stylish like Imgburn.
  11. I've searched quite a bit for an iso maker that can handle data files that are very large. For example, today it's possible to home record ones TV shows in the TS (transport stream) format. They're basically just glorified mpeg's. But the TS file for any given show is usually quite large, for a broadcast movie it can easily be over 4 gig's. While Nero can burn these to disc many individuals would prefer to let ImgBurn do the job by way of providing it with an ISO of the files. I've tried a few of the proggies listed in this forum, they're great and thank you, but seemingly none of them can handle these large files. Frequently they'll try to create the ISO but after their attempt completes I'll see that the file created is woefully undersized. So, if anyone has ever used a proggie that can do this specific function, create ISO's of TS files 4 gigabyte sized and larger, I'd be thankful if they could mention it here.
  12. I use UltraISO. A tool specifically designed to create, edit and burn all manner of disk image files. http://www.ezbsystems.com/ Not quite true. DVD Decrypter read the sectors from a disk (not the files) and made a duplicate of the DVD in ISO format. Creating an ISO from a bunch of files and directories is not the same as reading sectors from a disk and outputting to an ISO.
  13. That's what i thought from my previous posts i stated im looking to create a ISO with data not video files.
  14. Don't ITC only burn video files, im only looking to create a iso out of data which i can then burn with ImgBurn.
  15. I was trying to burn my family movies edited in Pinnacle Studio 9 Plus, but ImgBurn doesn't seem to recognize the DVD folder files Studio creates (i.e. BUP, VOB, and IFO). I want to use the bitsetting (booktype) DVD-Rom feature in ImgBurn for maximum DVD player compatibility. I have used it before with other applications (e.g. Photodex Producer) which create ISO files. Instead of ISO files, I get a folder of BUP, VOB and IFO files from Studio. Their FAQ #10621, says to use my burning software to "copy all .VOB, .IFO, and BUP files in the 'video_ts' folder." ImgBurn doesn't let me do that. Thanks in advance.
  16. That's great LIGHTNING UK i will look forward to that version. I'm sorry i was not aware the way DVD Decrypter created a ISO was different to what i was suggesting. I think if you do implement this feature tho it would open ImgBurn up to a much bigger market then currently available because if you don't want to burn images you don't need ImgBurn but if you implement the ability to create ISO's as well. People can then use it to backup there data. If you do decided to do a temp version i will be willing to test it if you wish.
  17. DVDShrink isn't capable (AFAIK) of building proper DL images. So basically, you need to output to a VIDEO_TS folder and then use PgcEdit to create the ISO file. You can have PgcEdit feed that ISO to ImgBurn, or just manually load ImgBurn and the file yourself.
  18. I was wondering if someone could help me with an answer , I would like to backup my dvds to dual layer discs ,I normally use dvdshrink to create an iso file but if I use reauthor mode movie only would imageburn recalculate the layer break to suit the disc and burn the dvd accordingly or do I have to backup the whole disc to get the layer break right . regards rew
  19. Down what route im not requesting anything to do with ripping movies etc. Simply the ability to create a iso similar to Folder2iso which a user could then burn with imgburn.
  20. I am aware that DVD Decrypter is dead what i was saying is that in DVD Decrypter you could create a iso so there for LUK clearly knows how to implement such a feature.
  21. I believe imgburn is one of the if not the best burner around free or other wise i have been trying to find a way to take full advantage ot this fact. I have been looking for a program that can create a iso of selected folder and files but there seems always to be something i don't like about them. It would be great if there was a file to iso mode in imgburn for me it would be then a great all round burner because uses could then burn data by first creating a iso of the files. You could have a box like imgburn queue with add file(s) and add folder(s) buttons, you could also have a option to either save the iso to a selected folder for later burning and if no folder is selected it just uses a temp folder which after creation it automatically burns the iso. My request maybe a long shot but this is one feature i would absolutely love to see implemented(soon the better ). Im no developer but as i said imgburn queue box looks to me ideal for aa gui for this feature all you would need is a create iso and destination select button etc. From DVD Decrypter you also already have a way to create a iso.
  22. I would love to see the ISO read mode added to ImgBurn. I still use DVD Decrypter because I can create my ISO and burn it from the same program, using the same UI. Of course, I would like to take advantage of the new feature of ImgBurn to do this (like queueing). Of course, this would fail if it was a copy protected disc, but for things from my Sony DVD Handycam, it would make things much easier.
  23. Hello, first, congratulations for this program. It's the best. Second, sorry for my english, is very bad. Third, i'm a user of Scenarist and more projects are DL and I can`t create a DVDR DL with Scenarist. My suggestion is that when choosing the .DVD image, Imgburn automatic search the layer break in .DVD and set in Tools/Write/User Specified or a cheking box for authoring DVD users that it creates a file that contains the information of the DVD and the jump of layer, and choosing this file, automatically the program records the image with the layer jump that the user has created in the authoring software. Sorry for my english and congratulations for this program. Greetings
  24. I'm looking for enlightenment. I'm new (though not young) so please, be gentle Just wondering, is there any advantage to using IMGburn for creating audio CD backups? I've searched for methods to create image files for burning audio to CD but haven't been able to find anything that's of help. I did see reference to the cdr file extension in one FAQ (which is one of the extensions recognized by IMGburn), but it didn't tell me how to create one. Any advice?
  25. an img file is like an iso file... and hopefully you know the concept of an ISO?! It's a complete image of the disc. For an ISO, it's just like you read sector 1, and write it to a file. Then you read sector 2 and append it to that same ISO file. The 'file' content of the disc is of NO importance. You're talking about turning files into iso/img files and then durning burning to a cd/dvd turning them back to file...that's not how it works at all, it just looks that way. Burning a collection of files means you have to create the filesystem (i.e. FAT/FAT32/NTFS/ISO/Joliet/UDF etc) on the fly and add the files in the correct places. Seeing as you even asked this question, perhaps that is a little over your head - much in the same way that ACTUAL filesystem creation (in programming terms) is a little over mine! - well, it's non trivial at least
