Funny ISO Format Question

[ron spencer]

Just downloaded V1.3 firmware for my Toshiba HD player (A3). ImgBurn will not burn the .iso file....says unknown format. Nero, Deep Burner and others will burn it. I realize that the ISO is obviously non-standard, but can ImgBurn be FORCED to burn an image of this type?

[volvofl10]

it really depends what is "Not standard" about the ISO , do you have a link to the f/ware so someone can have a look at it ?

2.3.2.0 can't be forced, no.

 

It's fixed in the next version.

ok thanks....in case you are interested (or anyone is), the link is:

ImgBurn says "invalid or unsupported image file"

 

 

cool it is fixed in next version.

 

 

thanks.

It's just because ImgBurn does a sanity check and looks for a valid 'known' file system within the ISO.

 

As there isn't one in those ISO's, it complains.

[ron spencer]

that is ok....I figured you would have it solved in this new version.....what will happen? Will it tell you it is out of spec and then give option to burn anyway?

 

 

thanks for being on top of it all....

Well an ISO should really just be Mode1/2048 anyway so I just assume that's correct if all else fails.

i downloaded that file, threw it in isobuster, and its a .TAO file, went into that and found a .bin file.

nice to see the latest beta works fine for this!!!!

 

thanks for giving the log.....looks like will be a REALLY Happy New Year for ImgBurn....

 

I have kept nero around for any "just in case" problems, but it looks like the new version will eliminate this need for good.

 

thanks for the work LUK and Beta Team Dudes and Dudettes!!!!
