How to create MDS files from the command-line

[zweistein]

Hello,

 

how can I create MDS files from the command-line

with the imgburn.exe?

There are many command-line options, but I don't see

an option to create a mds file to a given ISO image.

Perhaps there is a workaround with the build command,

but not to build a new iso-image - just to create the

mds-file?

Or does anybody know a third party tool?

The only way to create a MDS file for a given ISO image is by going to Tools menu -> 'Create DVD MDS File' option (there's no command-line equivalent for this).

 

By default ImgBurn, in its Read and Build modes, creates MDS files when they're needed, so I take it these images were created with other program?

Yes, the iso-image is made with mkisofs (cdr-tools of cygwin)

using the "cdrtfe" version from: http://cdrtfe.sourceforge.net/

I know the GUI based steps to build the mds file, but it would be

good to build this from the command-line with batch-scripts...

and completely independent to the GUI.

just read the post

I also think this is a very good suggestion.

maybe net build ?

Why would I want to do this?!

 

Either use ImgBurn or don't.
