Other icons :
Blue puzzle Icon
This icon can be placed next to a file or folder. It means that the file or folder is fragmented over the media, into different extents. Instead of one or a series of succeeding blocks the file or the file describing a folder is located at different locations. E.g. if a file is partly located in a (defect management) sparing area you would see this. This icon is not shown by default and needs to be enabled in the options.
Blue puzzle Icon
If you choose to see the different extents of a file, all extents will be shown with a blue puzzle icon next to them.
Red Plus Icon
This icon can be placed next to a track, session, partition or a file icon. It means that IsoBuster felt the need to compensate or alter what the drive returned to get to the data. E.g. CD-i discs are often not correctly recognized by CD/DVD-ROM drives and IsoBuster tries to compensate for that (possibly assumes tracks at certain locations) to be able to give access to the data.
Error Icon (this icon has priority over all other icons)
If during a scan physical errors were encountered and if the file is located in such erroneous sectors, then this icon will be placed next to the file. It indicates that there will be difficulties extracting the file and that after extraction the file might be corrupt. This icon is only put next to a file if a physical scan was initiated first. There are several ways to do this :
- Find Missing Files and Folders
- Check if all files are physically readable
- Perform a surface scan
Blue Arrow Icon with text 'E'
This icon is purely informative and shows that the file is preceded by an Extended Attribute Record. This Extended Attribute Record (XAR) contains extra data per file but doesn't really belong to the file. It is used by certain OS but definitely not Windows. This icon is not shown by default and needs to be enabled in the options. Extended Attributes are only used in case of ISO9660 and derivatives.
Blue Arrow Icon with three dots
This icon is purely informative and shows that the file is located inside a UDF or NTFS descriptor that describes the file's properties. The file is hence smaller than one single block minus the size of the UDF or NTFS descriptor itself. This icon is not shown by default and needs to be enabled in the options.
Multi- Apple Icon next to a file
When the icon is placed next to a file it means that the ISO9660 File System describing the file contained special Apple extensions.
Windows Icon
This icon can be placed next to an ISO9660 (or derivate) File System icon (See the icons on top of this page). It is displayed when in the File System settings dialog Little Endian is selected for that File System.
