IsoBuster 5.4.1 Released!

I'm very happy to announce the release of IsoBuster 5.4.1.

See the list below for all the goodies:

Changes / New:

• *.PFR Image file support
• *.IMZ Image file support (Multiple images supported, but limit currently set to 20)
• *.ZL and *.ZZ Image file support (zlib compressed image files (similar to the *.GZ functionality)) (*)
• *.ZIP Image file support (For single-file image files that are compressed in a zip file) (*)
• *.QCOW2 Image file support (current snapshot, no encryption)
• PartClone Image file support
• NTFSClone Image file support (versions 10.0 and higher)
• Support for Kurzweil K2000 synthesizer FAT 16 diskettes
• Support for DOS 1.0 style FAT12 floppies without a BPB (Bios Parameter Block)
• Support for Roland (Synthesizer) Audio CDs, Zip disks and images
• Support for ReFS version 3.10
• Ability to load a generic image file from and offset and with a range. Syntax: \\#\(1024,51200)i:\images\file.iso (for instance via imlst)

*.gz, *.zip, *.zl, *.zz etc. compressed file formats don't support random access, so IsoBuster has to index the files internally while loading them. For huge files his can take a minute or two.

Improvements:

• Improvement for Audio CD *.pxi image files
• Message dialog selection-items can be selected via Up / Down or Scroll-up or Scroll-down or via their index 0 - 9 - A - Z

• Control characters 0 - 31 are now replaced by their numeric character reference in XML reports
• Detection for Roland floppies / diskettes by showing a File System icon
• Recognize *.regf files by their signature
• Don't create a *.gzndx file if the compressed file is too small (and it fits in the cache)
• Detect and show PS4 External HDD encryption
• Show the type of encryption in use in ISZ Image files

• Plenty of other tweaks and improvements

Fixes:

• Fix printing from the edit window in 64 bit mode
• Fix for larger ReFS 3.x volumes where the root could not be found
• Fixed making corrupt ~4GB *.gzndx files for huge *.gz files in 32 bit mode
• Opening a split *.gz.00? file via the *.gzndx file now works properly (before it would not find the *.001 file)
• Version 5.4.1 fixes some regression in 5.4, in particular when opening generic image files

Please tell people about it, like and share it on Facebook and/or Twitter, post it on forums, reddit, etc. Practice safe and honest computing and stay away from cracks and keygens. Your help is appreciated.
