Mounting Images

I have managed to make an ISO image file from a DVD, and i know now i should be 'mounting' it if i want to watch it. 2 questions. What exactly is mounting an image, and how do i go about doing it?


Cheers.

 

I would use something like Nero to burn the image to a CD or DVD.
I'm working on a project just like that with an .avi that I can't burn any other way. Bottom line, Nero can/will burn an .iso image to a USEABLE format on disk.

 

thats what i'll do if theres no chance of me geting it into a watchable format on the computer, but would you know how i couldgo about doing that?

 

Its all cool, through the cunning use of winRAR, it all works

 

There ya go. Thats exactly what I'm playing with.

 

This is very easily solved.

Download Daemon-Tools (at the top of the page) and install it.

Daemon-Tools is a Virtual CD/DVD-ROM emulator.

Basically, it puts a little icon down by the clock, and you can use that icon to create up to 4 "virtual" drives, and then you can mount CD-images (like .iso and .nrg) directly into those drives.

I use Daemon-Tools myself all the time. =) It's mega useful.

 

I'd vote for Daemon Tools as well. If you just want to watch it, another option is VLC media player.

 

isobuster is good. So is CDBurner XPPro. Both free.
