Augmenting images with error correction data |
|
Walkthrough |
dvdisaster is specialized in working with error correction data and reading
of defective media. Creating ISO or UDF images and writing them to a medium
is a totally different business, and also bears high complexity.
We do not want to re-invent medium writing in dvdisaster. Instead we
continue using the CD/DVD/BD writing software which you have got when
purchasing your drive.
|
|
First create an ISO image using your CD/DVD/BD
writing software. Select the files you want to write to medium,
but do not start the writing process yet. Instead, create an ISO
image on your hard disk. Click on the image to the left to see a
detailed walk-thorugh.

|
|
When you have prepared the image
switch over to dvdisaster. Make sure that it
has been configured as described in
the basic settings.
|
|
|
Select the directory and file name
of the ISO image which you have just created. |
|
|
Augment the image with error correction data by
clicking on the "Create" button. |
| |
Please wait while the error correction data is created.
This may take a while depending on the image size and the
available free space on the medium. Processing a DVD image with about
20-30% free space should take about 5-10 minutes on recent hardware.
|
| |
Please note: dvdisaster does not create a new image, but will rather
augment the existing one. Look at the image in the file manager before
and after processing it with dvdisaster and note how its size increases.
|
|
|
Write the augmented ISO image on the medium.
Select the augmented image in your writing software and
start the writing process. Click on the screen shot to the left for
a detailed example.
|
|
|
Finished! You have now created a CD which is
protected by error correction code. |
