    I'm using DVD Decrypter to read ISO to backup DVD's and then Burn with IMG Burn, but for some reason IMG Burn keeps prompting me for the MDS file. Any ideas.

    An MDS file is just like a "cue-sheet", which provides IMGBurn with info on how to burn the ISO file. There's just a setting in DVDDecrypter > Tools > Options > ISO Read Mode that says "Create MDS file" that you need to tick, and then re-rip and all should be fine.




    Alternatively you can tell IMGBurn not to look for the MDS file and just accept the ISO file as-is:



    Either way should work fine.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    Generally not an issue for single layer discs, but for dual layer copies it holds the layer break information.
    Read my blog here.

    DVDDecrypter (3.5.4.0) => Tools => Settings => ISO Read Mode => check "create MDS file"

    (oops, should've waited for the images to load )

    Equally as important....ImgBurn does not need to have the MDS file to burn.
