.iso files dissapeared? #15

Open jorge-chavez opened 4 years ago

I recently updated irisman to 4.86.3 (I had a 2017 version, probably 4.81?¿), and discovered some of my games vanished. My backup disc is FAT32 formatted, and checking it with irisman File Manager found that PS3ISO directory had many files with weird names, something like .iso.0.JPG .iso.0.JPG.1 ... Later I found that 4G splitted iso's were there in the disc and with correct naming (XXX.iso.0 XXX.iso.1 ...), these are the ones that appear in irisman, but there was no single iso file (XXXX.iso) I checked the disc with a computer and with multiman, and the XXX.iso files were ok Also I downgrade irisman to 4.86 version, but the problem was also there

Sorry but I don't understand your issue correctly.

The ISO images in IRISMAN/Cobra are supported in 2 formats: 1) Single file .iso 2) Multi part files .iso.0, .iso.1, .iso.2, etc.

The file extension can be all upper case (.ISO or .ISO.0) or all lower case (.iso or .iso.0). Mixed caps are not supported (.Iso)

FAT32 supports files with size of up to 4GB. So if your original .iso file was larger than 4GB and was stored in the internal HDD or NTFS, the file is split automatically by IRISMAN into multi part files .iso.0, .iso.1, .iso.2, etc. when you copy the file to USB to allow to fit it on FAT32 due its file size limitation.

Hi, There's no filename/filesize issue, my PS3 was working ok with this disk drive, the only change I made was to upgrade irisman to 4.8.3 version from an old irisman release (got in 2017, I don't remember the number)

There's several issues I detected:

If there's more information or explanation needed, I can supply
