Summary: DVD Shrink does not recognize NTFS partitions - creates MDS instead of ISO files Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: werner.avenant@gmail.com
Hi Guys
Since version 1.1.18 DVD Shrink does not recognise NTFS partitions anymore. By design the program will go ahead and split the DVD over 4x 1GB files (ie MOVIE.I00, MOVIE.I01, MOVIE.I02) and create an MDS file to "link" the files together. It does this because it thinks the underlying filesystem does not support files bigger than 2Gb.
The problem is that exiting linux tools to read/convert this MDS file simply does not work (I did try mdf2iso - didn't recognise the file).
Even though everything works, it technically speaking makes DVD Shrink unusable since it is impossible to do something with the MDS file.
I can confirm that the problem did not exist in Wine 1.1.15 - DVD shrink created ISO files as expected.
Hope this helps
Werner
