iso files

[Wally3218]

When I use Imgburn to creat a iso from a Dvd I end up with two Iso files one 4,387KB and a smaller one at 5KB

What is the smaller iso file used for and do I need to keep it.

Thanks

It wouldn't make the MDS file if there wasn't a reson for it being there.

 

When you go to burn the image, that's the file you should be selecting (rather than the ISO itself).

Thanks for your reply

What settings should I use to copy a Dvd to a iso file

So I can play the iso on a media player and use the iso to burn a copy of the dvd later if needed.

THanks

You don't need to touch any settings.

 

Can your media player play ISO files?

 

Anyway, that's not my concern as it has nothing to do with burning discs - and that's what ImgBurn is for.

Yes my meadia player does play iso files l'm using a WDTV Live which is great.

I was asking help about creating iso files which imgburn does l also use it to burn dvd's too

To make an ISO you just use Read mode - but I get the impression you've already done that... so I'm not sure what else you're asking?!

 

I have a WDTV Live too

Thanks for your help LIGHTNING UK! I think I've worked it out as the iso's are playing ok.

I just ignored and deleted the mds.files.

One more question can I make a dvd with a iso without the mds.files

Thanks

Yeah you only really need the mds when burning or mounting in a virtual drive program. You can turn off mds creation in the settings.
