Peter van Hove hat eine neue Version von ISO Buster fertig. Gleichzeitig präsentiert sich die Homepage unter einer neuen Adresse: www.isobuster.com und auch in einem neuen Layout.
Die Änderungen bei der neuen Version sind vielfältig, neben diversen Detailänderungen kann ISO Buster jetzt Bootimages von bootfähigen CDs extrahieren, geht korrekt mit Mulitsession-CDs um, und und und... hier das Changelog (eins für Männer
):
- Port to BCB 5
- Re-Write of code (as a result different processes can run simultaneously, although internally properly queued as IsoBuster is not multi-threaded.).
- Complete Track and Session awareness. You are now able to explore file systems in the several sessions and have access to files and folders you long thought were lost. (Several changes were made between the different Beta versions to better support older SCSI drives with slightly different command set)
- The internal File-Image handling has changed such that many variants of image files are still recognised. This only works for data image-files as IsoBuster uses the data to find anchors. In case of a Prassi image, the block size is checked by a 'smart routine' rather than to rely on values in the headers which sometimes seem to be wrong. Added *.p01 image-file support (Gear), Added *.c2d support (WinOnCD).
- Full Win2K support.
- Under WinNT (4 or 2K), two ways of communication are now possible. Through the NT native SPTI layer or through Aspi. In other words, under NT, an Aspi layer is not longer a requirement (It's an option, and the user can switch between layers while IsoBuster is running). There's a limitation however (Microsoft did it again) : Under Win2K you need to be Administrator to be able to use the SPTI layer. A Win2K normal User (Not administrator) still needs Aspi.
- Track and Image extracting (few options, You still need to know what you're doing, the options are mainly there for more experienced users). For best image extracting turn to the well known image extractors of this world.
- Extra support for CDTV CD owners which can select the video track and extract all mpg data (when the file isn't referenced from the file system)
- A Mac icon is showed when a Mac ISO file-system is found and associated files (not shown by Dos or Windows) are marked with a Mac icon as well.
- Play Audio of Audio tracks.
- Work around NT 4 buggy atapi.sys driver problem (before Service Pack 4 or 5).
- Work around NT 4 bug (when using the SPTI communication method) in SCSI pass through mechanism (only when DMA on for IDE devices)
- Made sure IsoBuster works well with the Nero wnaspi32.dll for NT.
- Made some display improvements to better support the Windows 'Large fonts' setting.
- Added sort functionality. Clicking the LBA, Size or Name button sorts the content of the ListView (on the right).
- Added a feature to extract the directory list to a file which also mentions the block addresses. This has been proven to be very helpful for Genica mp3 player users that need to know which file is located where (tip : use excel to sort the list).
- Audio tracks can be extracted to wave files (Not an attempt to compete with the audio grabbers of this world, just an attempt to be complete, for best performance turn to audio grabbers).
- 'Ignore All following errors' and 'Overwrite all files' when lots of errors are encountered during extraction.
- IsoBuster accepts command line parameters. Start IsoBuster with an Image file directly loaded.
- Properties for Files; Directories, Tracks, Sessions, ...
- More Bootable CD-ROM support. The 'El Torito' information is made available and the image can be extracted. Turn to other tools to edit .... (I'll write a text about this later)
- A 'Run' option next to the extraction options
