I accidently opened an .ISO with WinRAR and inside were 31 files. I ripped a backup movie to C: drive as an ISO using DVDDecrypter, but I never knew an ISO was a package of many files. I'm wondering if I now used Nero 6 I could sidestep going through DVD Shrink assuming it's a small movie. There's 7 .BUPs, 7 .IFOs, and 17 .VOBs. I wonder which do what. It's just very interesting.:cool:

An .iso file is an image of the bits and bytes on a CD or DVD. You'll get the same list of files if you open the DVD in the Windows Explorer. As for what all those files on a DVD are for ... see this Doom9 Guide: You'll find it, and 13 other guides for the new user in the section marked The Basics.

and yes, assuming that the image is small enough to fit on a DVDR you can sidestep the DVDshrink part! you can also burn the image with dvddecrypter again, no need to use Nero :) steVe

What happens when u burn only the ifo, bup, and vob's containing the actual movie?
