PowerISO, MagicISO & UltraISO...


I know these 3 are for ISO making and burning...

But w/c of these 3 are you guyz using..???

Is there 1 better than the other in these programs or all 3 are equal...??
 
I have UltraISO and PowerISO ...also Nero 6.6 and Roxio 6
Mostly use Nero but use the others on occassion
 
nero 7 lite (google it up) and alcohol 120% handle all of my burning needs. i needed to use power/ultra/magic iso to convert an image file once, or get some files of an image, but that was it.
 
I had a knotty problem this weekend. Ended up with three image files in .gi file format. I tried several downloaded programs, but the one that solved it perfectly was UltraISO.

I then uninstalled the others and bought UltraISO. So easy to use and accurate. It -produced a standard ISO file, and I burned a DVD video from it and it played perfectly.
 
all these new file types annoy me, UIF? DDA? WTF! I downloaded a fix for a game, it was tiny like 2 megs and the file was some weird format only MAGICISO can read, great. I haven't done any research on if they're any better, but BIN/ISO have always worked fine for me *shrug*
 
Alcohol is a must have... but it does not handle uif formats that are handled by Magic ISO.

So I used Alcohol to replace, Nero, UltraISO and PowerISO and am using MagicISO to handle proprietary formats.
 
A little more on that odd ball video format, ".gi" It is the proprietary ISO format used by RealPlayer Plus's new video stream player and recorder and burner. Yeah - it will burn a DVD of video streams recorded in .ivr format, and they will play on generic systems as well as computers. It will also create a ISO file, but that results in .gi format.

RealPlayer Plus sells for about $30, and works very well for playing and recording streaming video clips from such places as Kennedy Center's Millenium Stage.

In order to open up that to a standard .iso, UltraISO did it nicely.

Damn! I hate odd ball formats!
