Most of the housekeeping data can be removed when packing the disc image into an archive, and then easily restored when unpacking the disc image from the archive. Using the RawSplitter codec The principle of compressionĪ raw disc image contains payload and housekeeping data (synchronization bytes, ECC and EDC checksums, etc.). If an ISO9660 file system cannot be represented as an ISO file (for example, if a CD-ROM XA disc image contains files recorded in the Mode2/Form2 format), the track will be represented as a folder containing correctly decoded Mode2/Form2 files. Iso7z also supports multi-session disc images each session’s track will be represented as an ISO file. A track containing ISO9660 file system data will be represented as an ISO file. An audio track will be represented as a WAV file, which you can play in any audio player. When you open a disc image in 7-Zip, each track will be represented as a file whose type depends on the track type. If you do that, each time you launch 7-Zip, it will automatically find Iso7z and use it when opening files of the supported formats. After that, copy Iso7z.64.dll or Iso7z.32.dll (depending on your 7-Zip edition) to that subfolder. To install the plugin into the 7-Zip installation folder, you need to create the 'Formats' subfolder. Iso7z.32.dll – the 32-bit version of the plugin.Iso7z.64.dll – the 64-bit version of the plugin.The Iso7z distribution package is an ordinary Zip archive that contains the following three files: Moreover, RawSplitter can slightly improve the compression of DAT files from Video CD discs (such files are usually named AVSEQxx.DAT and have the RIFF and CDXA signatures at the beginning of the file). The plugin also contains a special codec RawSplitter that enables 7-Zip to efficiently pack uncompressed raw disc images (CCD/IMG, CDI, CUE/BIN, GDI, MDS/MDF, or NRG) into 7z archives. NRG - disc images created with Nero Burning ROM.MDS/MDF - disc images created with Alcohol 120%.ISZ - disc images created with UltraISO.ECM - disc images compressed with ECM Tool.CDI - disc images created with DiscJuggler.CCD/IMG - disc images created with CloneCD.List of formats that can be opened in 7-Zip with Iso7z: It supports disc images created in different applications. 7-Zip with Iso7z can quickly extract files from a disc image without mounting it. Iso7z is a small plugin for the popular 7-Zip archiver.
