Ok guys having a bit of a problem. Im burning to an external harddrive. I have been wanting to back up some of my DVD's. I heard that .uif is the best to archive your dvd's because of the space you save. (half of that of .iso) anyways. I use MagicISO to make .uif images on my external, when i mount them in my virtual drive (MagicDisk) it plays the opening MGM title thing with the lion, and then goes to a black screen. I tried exporting the .uif as a .iso and then mounting it. same problem. since im burning to a FAT32 external, DVD decrypter only lets me save as .mds. these image files are large, but mount successfuly, and won't seem to burn. I'm about to go crazy, ive tried so many different things. PLZ someone help me. what is the best format to backup images to an external hard drive that can be mounted and played, and easily be burned?

an ISO file is the way to go, heres some better programs to backup your DVDs

********FREEWARE***********

1. dvdfab decrypter to rip dvd shrink to transcode(sometimes you will need to use FixVTS or VOB Blanker to clean the file before transcoding with dvd shrink) then nero, imgburn or dvd decrypter to burn.

i understand how iso would be the best, but since it is a FAT32 storage doesn't it have a limit of 4 GB per file?
