Iso Compatibility; Xvid Compatibility - Macpower & Tytech MovieStar User Manual

.ISO Compatibility

Only with MovieStar can you create your own Virtual DVD Library by storing your private
collection of DVDs (.ISO format) and watch them as if they were running from the original
DVDs.
Once the movies are stored in MovieStar as .ISO files, you can play them just like an original
DVD with full DVD functions: Menu, Chapter selection, Audio stream selection, Subtitle
selection, Fast Forward, Fast Backwards, Slow, Pause, Step Forward, Repeat, and Search
are all included.
An ISO file is the image file on a DVD disk. ISO image files are widely used to store, then
transfer DVD contents through the Internet. ISO is a common DVD image format for DOS,
Windows, Mac OSX, Linux and other operating systems. MovieStar can play the .ISO file
exactly the same as if it was running from the original DVD.
The produced files are huge in
size, but this is not a limitation
for MovieStar. As already
mentioned, MovieStar supports
any of the FAT32, NTFS or
HFS+ file systems. Note: The
largest single file size on
FAT32 is 4GB! If your ISO is
bigger then that, you will have
to format your hard drive
using a different format.
The adjacent figure depicts
various .ISO movies that have been produced in less than 12 min each.
MovieStar is not designed or intended to, and may not be used to violate any
copyrights or other IP (Intellectual Property) rights. Each user of MovieStar may only
use it in connection with materials legally owned by or licensed to the user, and only
extend such ownership or license rights that will permit such use.

XviD Compatibility

XviD is an ISO MPEG-4 compliant video codec. It is not a product; it is an open source
project which is developed and maintained by groups of people all over the world.
MovieStar is fully compatible with XviD format and can play any movie encoded with this
compression format.
