Your program seems awfully complicated or I am just another moron, I have two files labeled conflict zone dot mds and mdf. When I locate the folder, these files aren't there unless I change file types in Alcohol drop down (Says in FAQ all files are recognized by default). I've wasted 4 discs now trying to get this program to work. Have no idea what I am doing wrong. Just want to watch this flick.
I read on googl search at some other post that some OS allow changing the mds to iso. Tried that too. No joy.
So here is a sys report.

Thanks in advance for any help

A compatriot! :) But can you be more specific?

What do you mean by that exactly (which dropdown menu and what you are doing exactly)? And how you wasted these 4 discs?

When A120 has me browse for the file I want to burn, it comes back with file not recognized

This image must be corrupted. Where did you get it from? If it is a DVD image you can try renaimimg the mdf file to iso and use it instead of the mds one but if the mdf file itself is corrupted this won't help. By the way are the mds and mdf files in the same folder?

It is supposed to be a dvd movie file. I downloaded it. They are in the same folder. I have tried a dvd and cd. Everything burns correctly, or so the program thinks. Once the disc tray goes back into the computer, it shows it there, with the tiny amount of disc space used (CD) but then hit play, it comes up "with insert disc".
I am doing something wrong.
If I change mdf to iso, can't I then use imgburn or does the mds file need to be changed also?
Tried it.Same thing. Burns complete but not recognized.
Is there a way of watching this through emulation on a virtual drive?
