Unexpected splitting of ISO

[Ron Lowe]

Hi, all.

 

I'm ripping single-layer DVD+R data disks to ISO files on disk.

I choose a filename, eg Image.iso.

 

However, it does not create Image.ISO.

It splits it, creating:

Image.i01 at 4,194,302 KB;

Image.i02 at 395,522KB

and the .mds file.

 

Why does it feel the need to do this?

It's a single-layer original.

( Yes, I can change the option to 'never split'. But I thought the 'Auto' logic would have correctly identified a single-layer original. )

 

Will this split image correctly burn back onto single-layer blanks identical to the originals?

 

Thanks,

Ron Lowe

FAT32 file system limitation

That's exactly it in one.

 

I was ripping to an external FAT32 drive.

My normal data drives are all NTFS, so I simply didn't stop to consider this.

 

I guess the image will be re-assembled correctly when I select the .mds file to burn?

 

 

Many thanks

Cannot see why not.
