MagicISO (also referred to as MagicISO Maker) is aCD/DVD imageshareware utility that can extract, edit, create, and burndisc image files. It offers the possibility ofconverting betweenISO andCUE/BIN and their proprietary Universal Image Format disc image format.
It is able to read and write to disc images without decompressing or moving the files. It can also convert the data from existingCD/DVD-ROMs to disc images and create bootable image files (file extension .bif). MagicISO canmount disc images with the addition of MagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager.
The trial version cannot handle disc images larger than 300 MB. MagicISO is currently produced by MagicISO, Inc.
Universal Image Format orUIF is a proprietary disc image format for CDs and DVDs designed for MagicISO. Compared to the widespread simpler image formats like .iso and .bin, UIF addscompression, password-protectedencryption, MD5checksums, and multi-session images.[4][5] MagicISO supports CIF files created byEasy CD Creator, but onlydata CDs (ISO 9660 compatibles), not audio CDs. MagicISO also installs a context menu which is not removed with the software when uninstalled; rather, it remains on the system you installed the program on and is not easily removed.MagicDisc, known asMagicISO Virtual CD/DVD Manager, is afreeware virtual drive counterpart toMagicISO. It is a separate application needed to mount discs virtually. MagicDisc can also decompress UIF images to ISO format.[6]
