I think it's PImg, but it might be pImg. At least that's what works for
me. I can't imagine any reason that an ISO/Mac hybrid image would burn
that way and a pure ISO wouldn't. BTW, that was with Discribe from
several months back.... They plan to add a different type of image to a
future version. The current version burns standard mkiso-style images
that contain the data. The future version will burn images that are a
lower level, in which the error correcting codes are embedded, much like
you would get if you were to force raw reading from a CD-ROM drive.
Pretty weird stuff, and not needed for burning normal CD images.
