File System Conversion

[daser108]

I created a UDF image from a Blue-Ray file (any file exceeding 4.7 GB, choose UDF). How to convert UDF to ISO so it can be viewed in PDVD?

[LIGHTNING UK!]

UDF is a file system, ISO is a container format.

 

Why don't you provide a bit more detail on what you did to create the image in the first place, then maybe we'll be able to help.

 

Are you sure you don't already have an ISO file? Just mount it in Virtual CloneDrive or burn it to a disc, then it should play ok in PowerDVD.

Hey UK, I have been away.

 

So this is what i do, I save all of my DVD's as ISO's, then to my hard drive after using DVD shrink, I play them using virtual clone, i don't burn them to disk.

 

I want to do the same with blue ray. Blue ray are huge files ranging anywhere from 20G to 43G. I'm trying to reduce the size of the blue ray ISO image. I took just the main .m2ts file from the STREAM folder along with the (ANY!, BDMV and CERTIFICATE) folders and used your ImgBurn to create an ISO. While in the process the program prompted me, any file greater than 4.7Gb has to be saved in UDF format, not joliette 9960. After i saved the image i tried to play it on PDVD through virtual clone. PDVDD said it did not recognize the format.

 

Now i have used anydvdhd to create a BD .iso image to my hard drive. I play it on PDVD through virtual clone, works as it should. As i stated above i trying to reduce the size b4 saving the image. I feel like I'm missing some pieces to a puzzle.

 

Please advise,

You're breaking the BD-Video standard, and that's why PowerDVD doesn't recognize the disc. You'll have to use a BD re-authoring program to do what you want, similar to what DVD Shrink does for DVDs.

Alrighty then!

Thanks for your advice. Yeah, I liked your sign, no I'm not nervous.
