Hi Guys

Just some additional feedback on the problem. I downgraded to the offical
ubuntu package (ie the stable release 1.0.0-1ubuntu4~hardy1), and files are
correctly ripped to ISO

I apologise for not having regression tests, juggling 4 projects at the moment
and didn't read the howto. Sorry - will do that asap. 

In case anyone runs into this problem (and searches the bugs) - the following
workaround will work perfectly. It turns out the MDS file is very elementary
and it is possible to "cat" all the files together into an ISO without any
problems (the resulting ISO was written to DVD+R and played on a Pioneer Home
DVD player without any problems). 

cat MOVIE.I00, MOVIE.I01, MOVIE.I02, MOVIE.I03 > MOVIE.ISO

When you cat everything together don't include the MDS file. 

As a sidenote: Austin is correct when he says that DVD Shrink doesn't use any
NTFS features (ie. permissions/user rights), it simply queries the system's
filetype to decide whether or not it should got the MDS route or the ISO route. 

I have to ask - wouldn't it help if there was dropdown in wine's config
allowing you to set your drive map as floppy, cd-rom, harddrive (fat),
harddrive (fat32), harddrive (ntfs), harddrive (ext3) etc? At this stage you
can only select "Local Hard drive" with no further specification of what
harddrive it is. It seems strange to be able to specify a floppy file system or
an ISO9660 filesystem but not having the ability to specify harddrive systems
in a bit more detail.

Hope this helps

Werner
