Yes. Go to MODE-ISO-WRITE and select the MDS file.

I always burn the Iso file... so I don't think it matters as long as you have them both in the same directory.

Well I have always chose the iso and all my backups work perfectly fine so... I really don't think it matter which one you use.

so what do you say to those who have FAT32, and are trying to copy a game over 4 gb in size?

I duno... I have both NTFS and FAT32. But about the 4 gigs in size... Yea... I duno... But if you choose the .mds file does it affect the size on the disc?

you must remember that FAT32 cannot handle a single file over 4gb's,thats why its important for some people to select the MDS.
dvd decrypter splits the file in half,enabling users of fat32 to burn games over 4gb in size
it then re-joins them,but you need to select the MDS,...this gives the information needed for it to do so

The ISO and MDS are not the same... I porve it by the fact that when I burned the ISO of Death by Degrees, it didnt work. But when I burned the MDS file it did... any idea?
