When dvd decrypter makes image of the game on my harddrive it makes a ISO file and a MDS. But if I want to burn that image back onto the blank dvd do I choose mds or the ISO?

Choose the .mds file, be sure to have both in the same location when burning.

Since I installed Alcohol120% that mds file that Decrptor makes it looks just like Alcohol's mds file it's red and white. Just like Alcohol's, But that won't matter I take it. Also when I open the folder to show the path where the image is Decryptor show's both IS0 and MDS file so I'm choosing the MDS out both from now on.

As far as i know a .mds file is an alcohol file only DD uses them too, it wont matter if it's showing as a alcohol file because DD can handle them.

the mds file just points to the image. It doesn't matter which one you choose. The only time you have to burn the mds is if you have a fat32 hd and an image over 4 gigs.
