CDRoller creates ISO Image file

Creating ISO Image File.

ISO Image is a single large file that is a representation of the whole set of data and programs as it will appear on the disc. A disc image refers to the both content and logical format. It can be useful to:
  • Replicate your disc further, using our Burn option or third-party CD/DVD/BD mastering software. For example, if you wish to replicate your FINALIZED DVD-video disc, created by standalone DVD device (camcorder, personal DVD recorder).
  • Write the disc image to hard drive once, then record it several times to the different discs in order to save processing time.
  • Create a disc image file to be written on another system (UNIX, Macintosh).
  • Back up CD/DVD/BD data.

To extract ISO Image File you can select the same option from the Tools menu, or click the button in the Side Bar. The program creates ISO image file with the name assigned to CD/DVD/BD Volume (so-called Volume Identifier). In the Properties dialog, you can simply "rename" a displayed CD/DVD/BD label.

Creating ISO Image File

Notes.
1. ISO image file can be created only if the disk with a single data track originally was created with ISO-9660 or Joliet file system.
2. To extract ISO Image File from UDF disc, you should recognize the disc in ISO mode first:
- Click the Preferences button in the Tool Bar and check Read only ISO 9660 tracks box under the Browser tab in the Preferences dialog. Click the OK button to close the Preferences.
- Click the Refresh button in the Tool Bar. If your disc has ISO/Joliet partition, you should see ISO/Joliet in the File System column, instead of UDF.

Burning a new disc.

To make a new disc from the recovered ISO Image file, just click Burn button in the Tool Bar, select Burn a new disc from ISO Image file in the Start Window and click the Next button.

Burning ISO Image File

Further, using a simple "step by step" procedure, you can select CD/DVD/BD burner (computer drive), add the recovered ISO Image File into your compilation and, finally, burn a new disc.
