I would like to know wht is the best tool to compress an ISO file ?

i have downloaded NFS Rivals and its a huge huge file of abt 845 mb

i have PSP compressor but i think it doesnt work either its me tht i dont know how to work it or it just doesnt work cuz after selecting the iso file i click on the left to compress from iso to cso

click on compress and nothing happens ?

doesn anyone know of a better way to compress ?

plus how to plus .rar file on my 1.5 psp i have Devhook .46 on it ?

CisoUtility as far as I know :)
I got my NFSR down to 219mb with it.
http://psp.console-tribe.com/downloads/file-1400/ciso-converter-v...
Would be the download link ;)

Press ISO -> CSO in the program and Compression level 9
It will shrink like cotton.

EDIT: Use these settings:
1. [x]ISO -> CSO
2. Open the Iso
3. Press Save CSO, and type the filename to the "Save as.." menu that pops up. I prefer the name vNFSR, (when you got the v before the name, it will work more likely, don't ask why.)
4. Compression level 9
5. Press Start and wait it to finish the compression up.
6. Copy the vNFSR.cso to your "MS_ROOT/ISO/"
7. Enjoy

i got my rivals down to 235mb by just using umdgen and removing the dummy files. I got a 2gb so i didn't really need to compress it any further. i'd say it would go further using cso though...does your compressed one chunk at all Knight666???

All Im saying is that knight launch the 39 mb game Im interested to know...once u launch at the 2.71 XMB change the clock speed to 333MHz so it reduces the lag due to extreme compression!
