ISO MDS Layer Break questions


lfssBRA

Recommended Posts

On burning images to dual layer discs, what happens if I select the ISO file instead the MDS one? The layer break will be wrong? If I delete the MDS file by mistake before burning, is there a way to recalculate the correct layer break or generate another MDS file? If I burn a disc selecting the ISO file, could I generate an MDS file from it? If yes, will this MDS fit the primary ISO?

 

Thanks!

From ISO the layerbreak will not be present.

 

 

To recalculate use the tools / ISO /display IFO then browse for the IFO

 

You can recreate the MDS file from tools menu then browse for ISO, I'm sure it will not insert layerbreak though. (at create mds file bit if you manually enter the layerbreak that you got from IFO) it will then patch this into .mds

 

If you already know the layerbreak (eg xbox360 game) you could create it in text doc then save as .dvd

 

 

LayerBreak=1913760

GRAW2.iso

 

I think, so wait for the author of program or blutach to respond.

You should always use the .mds file if you are burning a DL layer disc as it contains all the layer break info etc.

 

MDS is just a file that is generated along with the ISO file when making a 1/1 Copy or creating a ISO file on your hard drive. It just basically tells

your burner where to put the layer break for dual layer burning.
