How do I use an ISO image file ?

 

An ISO file contains an exact image of a disc (CD/DVD/BD) so it is used like a physical, except that you load it in a virtual drive.

 
 

I created a DVD or Blu-ray disc ISO image and I want to mount it in a virtual drive, what do I do ?

 

It happens if ISO file (or disc folder) is on same physical hard drive as the output folder:

  • On Windows 8, just double-click an ISO file and the image is mounted as a virtual drive.
  • On other Windows version (XP, Vista, 7), get Microsoft free utility: Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel.
 
 

Why it's not possible to test Blu-ray disc backup with demo version ?

 

AACS protection is related to disc certificate so Blu-ray discs must be decrypted to be copied, which is not done in demo version.

 
 

It seems discs are not identified in appropriate drives, what do I do ?

 

It happens if you inserted/removed several virtual disc drives in same session (for example: double-clicking ISO files on Windows 8) ; because drive letters are changed. You can load/eject discs in same virtual drive thousands times in same session (using Daemon Tools drive for example) ; because it stays in a unique drive with a unique drive letter.

  • Restart your computer (it will reset the drive letters assignment).
