Just to say thanks - I tried 5 other products but IsoBuster was the only one to see the files on the dodgy CD, never mind save them!

David Brear, Otley, West Yorkshire, UK

Brilliant software. Tried lots of alternatives none of which came anywhere close to IsoBuster. My camcorder completely messed up the disk but IsoBuster recovered almost all of the video. Thanks.

David Ferguson, Cambridge, UK

Just wanted to say a big thank you. I travelled through Europe for six weeks with my wife and my trusty DVD camera. I think I formatted instead of finalised the discs and was in deep trouble. I sent the discs to a company who offer their services for heaps of dollars and almost guarantee success. THEY FAILED. Isobuster did it for me and at a fraction of the price, now we can now enjoy our trip all over again.

Wayne Mitchell, Waramanga, ACT, Australia

Your software works great and is easy to use. I have recovered three DVDs worth of media so far. Thanks

Wayne Deakin, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, USA

FYI - I was able to get my video from my disc! I can't believe it. I had spent three - four hours trying to get something to even recognize the disc, let alone get the information. I searched on the internet for other people who couldn't get information from a disc and someone recommended IsoBuster. It is the only program that actually found the information and now, thanks to IsoBuster, I was able to recover the video. This video was taken of two public works employees that spent all day with me while I videotaped them doing their work. I was sure the video was gone and I would have to redo the whole day. This would not have gone over well with the employer. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Great product!

Ann Pudoff, Folsom, CA, USA

We had a Movie DVD that we created at our church. It did not successfully finalize in the DVD recorder and it was not readable on any DVD recorder or player. I got everything to work with your IsoBuster data recovery tool. I successfully extracted all the files with IsoBuster (per your Tips and Tricks "How to recover Video data from a DVD"). I then copied all the files from the Video_TS folder into my NTI DVD burner Add box (Laptop) and successfully burned a new copy (per your Tips and Tricks "How to re-create a DVD from the full set of VIDEO_TS files on my hard drive"). We were extremely excited to get this video back. It was one of the most important video sessions we have had in a long time and were very worried that we had lost it. I am VERY thankful I found your program and was able to restore our DVD.

Bob Erickson, St. Paul, Minnesota, USA

Did not really think your programme would recover my corrupt MP3 files originally recorded on tape cassettes and backed up on a rewritable CD-RW disc twenty years later when the cassettes were long gone. Well -- IT DID! Thanks guys.

Ron Harrison, Cheshire, UK

Just wanted to say thank you so much for your wonderful product ! I had a cd containing over 100 pictures which I foolishly hadn't copied anywhere else. Murphy's Law the disk got corrupted & I thought that was that .... valuable pictures gone forever. I Google'd the web for any solution that might be out there & came across your website. Within 10 minutes of purchasing your product I had my pictures back !! Absolutely wonderful & so easy to use. Highly recommend it to anyone with similiar problems. Thanks again,

Richard O'Connor, Dublin, Ireland

I purchased your program and it’s working flawlessly to recover my InCD UDF files. Very easy to get up and running. It has a very intuitive interface and I’m not having any problems. Thank you very much!

Mike Farrell, Houston, TX, USA

We purchased Isobuster yesterday to recover data from two dvds that both had the same files. We make two copies of all dvds and our dvd drive could not read either one, which is rare. We searched the internet for data recovery software and looked at many programs. The ones that were totally free could not read our dvds. Isobuster read them instantly. We paid for the full version and recovered our files easily. We are very pleased with Isobuster.

Mark Peterson, Peterson Aerial Photography Inc., Minnetonka, MN, USA

THANK YOU!! That’s my first response, because you just saved yet another "once in a lifetime" DVD. I just recorded a Funeral service at our Church, and the Samsung DVD-R157 DVD Recorder that I was recording on, failed to finalize the DVD at the end of the service..... and I was at a loss for what to do (I couldn’t very well ask them to do the entire funeral over again, now could I).
So, knowing that the video was actually there, just not finalized properly (and the DVD recorder wanted nothing to do with that disc at that point), I Googled around for a DVD Recovery software tool, and found yours. I downloaded the trial version, and it quickly found all kinds of possible files able to be recovered, so I made the online license purchase and VIOLA! It recovered EVERYTHING on that DVD, sans one tiny little piece at the end that I recorded, which didn’t matter.
The family of the deceased was EVER-so thankful that this tool existed! Their other family members, who were unable to travel to be at the funeral, will now get to see what a wonderful memorial service it was.
I had also downloaded a couple other programs at the same time, but neither of them held a candle to the capabilities of IsoBuster.
Many thanks again, and this tool has become a permanent addition to my ministry work... as there were previous losses that never got recovered... but never again it seems!

Ps. Ron Chinnery, Dir. of Media Ministries, Sheffield Family Life Center, Kansas City, MO, USA

Bought your program today after I accidently erased my backup DVD which has absolutely all my programs & casual games stored on it. Within 20 seconds, I found everything and extracted to my hard-drive. You are an absolute lifesaver as it would had taken me weeks to get everything back and the registration codes as they too were saved on a text document on the disc! Thanks!

Ryan Hayward, Perth, Australia

I'd just like to express my gratitude for this excellent product. I had the first year of my daughter's life (including the birth!) all stored on a DVD. When I came to finalise the disk in my recorder last week the machine broke down during the finalise. The disk became unreadable and I started to panic. I tried a number of applications which failed to recognise any data on the disk until Isobuster was recommended to me. It found the data within seconds and I was able to extract the .VOB files and reconstruct the DVD. Thanks!

Patrick Martin, London, UK

WOW!!! What an absolute LIFE SAVER! I just reformatted my laptop's hard drive and installed my operating system from scratch. I thought I was smart, having backed up all of my document files to DVD and I even verified that the discs worked in my dvd drive. However, after the OS reinstall, the discs appeared empty. I then tried two other machines and the discs still looked empty. I know data was burned onto them...I could even see the "burn marks" on the back of the discs. I scoured the internet for help and almost all answers pointed to faulty burns or bad discs. I amost gave up but found a reference to trying ISO Burner. Voila! It took ISO Buster all of 30 seconds to restore ALL of my missing data that NO other drive or computer could read. What an absolute Life Saver!!!! A huge thank you to Peter and ISO Buster. That was the best $30 I've ever spent!

Chris Martin, Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, United States

I just want to THANK YOU for Isobuster. As a church musician I had over 800 hours of work saved on CD's (very important stuff!!) and discovered my new computer could not read the CDs. Isobuster read them and I was able to recover everything. It was so worth the small fee you require.

Martha Glaser, Ferryville, WI, United States

Friend had a knowledgeable "PC Doctor" back up his computer, burning a DVD of all the files covering many years of personal and business related documentation and family photographs. The photos had been gathered for a 65th birthday event for the wife. The computer was then reformatted to solve a persistent problem. Guess what ... the backup DVD was unreadable in any PC. As a fairly savey PC user I had used ISOBUSTER 1.0 to solve a problem andupgraded to 2.0 in appreciation for it having saved me from a disaster with an unreadable photo archive disk. And as you would expect ISOBUSTER 2.0 saved my friend as well. I was able to recover all the data. This is a problem godsend.

Patrick G Whittingham, Stouffville, Ontario , Canada

We used our stand-alone VHS/DVD recorder to capture over 3 hours of live performances at a recent concert/dance recital. We ran our video camera into the video input and sound from the main mixing board to the audio input. It was a multi-camera shoot and we were relying on the high quality audio from the DVD recorder. Well, the event ended and someone walked by and unplugged our system - while it was still recording! We tried to load the DVD but it showed as BLANK. By looking at the disc we could see that there was data on it, but could not read it in ANY machine. Even IsoBuster saw the disc as blank. Since it needed a file system to be written on it, we put it back into our stand-alone VHS/DVD recorder and recorded about 5 seconds, then pressed STOP. This wrote the file system onto the disc and although no other machine could read the disc, IsoBuster was able to recover our 3.5 hour concert. You have saved the day once again! Thanks for such an incredible product and great tech support!

Editorial comment: The file-system explanation may not be the best one in this particular case. But thank you Andrew for your feedback and great to hear that your data could be saved.

Andrew Bower, Cameron Park, CA, United States

This isn't a problem, it's a big THANKS! Isobuster really saved my butt last night. I know I shouldn't depend on packet-writing programs, but I've never (before) had the slightest problem and the one I use (DLA) is so convenient.... Well, something happened somewhere with Windows Updates and now the program is crashing when I try to eject a disc, making the disc unreadable. I have this one DVD filled with tons of archival programs, updates, etc. I thought it was toast, but Isobuster retrieved EVERYTHING, even though Windows said it couldn't access the disc (and therefore the 4 GB were "empty"). I bought the program a while ago just as one of the safety tools I keep on my rig. In one night Isobuster completely paid for itself. Thanks!

Christian B. Hart, Los Angeles, CA, United States

I got the message: "Read error. The PathTable (Joliet) couldn't be read properly. Only 0 out of 1 Blocks could be read. Read error at address 350359. Device reported error 03/11/00" I don't know if this error message is about my hardware or ISOBuster. It did not stop ISOBuster from recovering all 18 files from the cd for me and I was very impressed. Appreciate your advice about the error message?

John Crosland, United States

I just wanted to make a comment on your product. All I can say is this. I BOW-DOWN TO THE MASTERS. Thank You for the best dang software that has ever been invented. I had HP Pavillion PC I never sealed my disc to use on another OS and by doing that My OS XP couldn't or wouldn't read the information on the files (CD's) I knew they where there. But now thanks to ISOBuster I have every single disc back and there all readable again. All 455 family vid and Pic's disc are back and the joy of being able to see my mother again was worth every penney. I would of paid 8 times the amount I did for this program it's that Dam Good. Your Customer for Life

Charles T. Werenczak, Jamestown, NY, United States

Thanks for the clearest tutorial on a most difficult subject How to re-create a DVD from one or more VOB files on my hard drive. If only others could do likewise. Brilliant!

Ian Mac, United Kingdom

I just wanted to let you know that you have made my wife & I very happy. I managed to lose some precious photos of two of our children 3 or 4 years ago and I have tried numerous programs to try and recover them as well as consulting with "the experts". All efforts failed but I was convinced that the data was still on the CD. I saw your program on File Hippo and thought I would give it a go fully expecting another failed promise. I couldn't have been more wrong. So much so that I sat here at 1.15 am backing them up and writing to you. I can't thank you enough.

Kevin Johnson, Cowes, United Kingdom

We are at the beginning of a very important project with a tight time frame. Our client sent us a DVD that we needed to review and choose video clips to include in a "Walk-In" video that we are creating for their National Sales Conference. On Friday, we took the DVD, put it in our duplicator and created two copies. Much too our chagrin the copies AND the original were corrupted. After checking the discs on numerous players we got very worried. Today I downloaded your software, located the instructions and EASILY recovered the DVD. What a lifesaver!!! We can continue on schedule and won't be embarrassed by going back to the client and saying we had a problem with "the only copy" of their DVD.
THANK YOU for creating a fantastic product.

Peter Gordon, Kay MultiMedia, New York, NY, United States

I've never written a product review before, but I had to for this product! This is the best 30 dollars I've spent in a long time. I had 30 gigs of musics from 10 years of cd's that I copied using Windows drag and drop. I haven't been able to read them (after stupidly deleting them on the old computer) for three months now. After trying what I thought was every product out there, yours finally worked. Thanks for saving my music collection!

Michael Mebane, New York, NY, United States

I just wanted to say that your program saved almost 1000 pictures that me and my friends took on our vacation in Florida. Thank YOU for making this awesome program!!!
Regards from 4 happy Swedes...

Patrick Gottlieb, Uddevalla, Sweden

Thanks Peter. My mistake. I'll tell you what, your product is a real lifesaver. I have years of pictures saved on DVD as a backup. When I needed it I couldn't open it. Over 2,000 pictures of 9 grandkids and family. With iso-buster I was able to retrieve them all. I tell everyone I talk to about DVD backups for pictures that they should get a copy of your product. Again, thanks from me and GrandMa.

William J. Ryle, GrandPa, Ellabell, GA, United States

ISOBuster is the best. One of my users erased a DVDRW that she had family photo's on. Using your program we were able to recover all the photos off the dvd. We found your program by doing a google search for "DVD Recovery". I will say I was skeptical about the product at first but I have no problems in saying "ISOBuster WORKS!!!" and if you need to recover a DVD or CD, stop looking and click the buy now. You can't go wrong for the price of the program.

JR Williams, Senior Systems Engineering Architect, Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin, United States

Just wanted to let you know what a lifesaver ISOBUSTER was yesterday. I had found that one of my major OS disks was cracked and unreadable to boot from (XP) and so I could not do an XP repair. This meant the PC was down completely. ISOBUSTER, after a few tries of straightening out the cracked disk in the CD rom, was actually able to recover the files. I then had to use a 3rd party CD burn program to make another bootable disk, and then copied the recovered files to it. THANK YOU!

Mariann, MDS Computer Services, Charleston, SC, United States

Just wanted to say THANKS.
I found your software sometime in '99 then lost it in a HDD crash later that year. Anyway I just found it again and realized that this is by far the best and fastest data recovery software out there! Keep up the great work! Thanks.

Steve, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA

I have a cd camera and during use the cd became currupted (file error) I had a few pictures that I wouldnt be able to do again. The cd was unsable in any computer. Product worked great. Thanks for a wonderful product. You saved a few good memories on that disk. THANKS AGAIN

Connie Owens, Dundee Michigan, United States

I had been searching the Internet for days, and even the big-name brands could not offer me any software that would save my DVD home footage I had been painstakingly compiling for a friend's birthday. Even a specialist told me "essentially you're stuffed".

Then, by chance I stumbled across your product. I cannot tell you how grateful I am; you have saved an utterly irreplacable memento and gained me a reputation as a hero... I think you deserve the credit more... I shall be recommending your software to anybody who asks for help on such matters in future!

Owen Franklin, Bristol, United Kingdom

Thank you so much ISOBuster has managed to get back some pictures I thought I would never see again. What a fantastic product

Martin Cohen, Farnborough Hampshire, United Kingdom

OMG I scratched an audio CD (could see right thru the disc!) and nothing would play it anymore, I tried every trick, scratch-fixer and cleaning item but no go on anything - then I was told I would never listen to my 180+ mp3's since I scratched the label part of the disc. That was 2 years ago, I never threw it out, and then I see a link to IsoBuster on a forum on Google for people trying to fix their scratched CD's and DVD's, and basically everyone knew that if the label is scratched, your disc is garbage - Not So!....I figured I'd give it a try with your free version. Can you imagine my surprise when my CDrom was able to finally see the files, with IsoBuster?? Not only that, I was able to remove all the damaged files (like 19) and send the good files to my hard drive, and I burned a good, working CD! Thank you so much!

Cindy Parisi Arriaga, Chicago Illinois, United States

Just bought IsoBuster 30 minutes ago after intensive search on the internet, trying other products that didn't work. Haven't been able to sleep for 2 days after losing important and unique pictures on a CD-RW that became unreadeable on any machine. Oh my God: you saved my life... everything came back...
THANKS AGAIN
Great team, great technicians, great software...

André Barrière, Sherbrooke (Quebec), Canada

I had been looking at it and thought it was a good piece of software, but really no need for it.
Famous last words.
I've been scanning some old photos of my dad's (up to 14 DVDs full - yes, FULL) and have been making jpg and tif copies of the scanned files as well. Tonight I found that the number 2 disk of TIF pictures was there, but "nothing" on it. As you can imagine, this is taking quite a bit of hard drive space and I have been deleting as I go...have the raw copies of the missing files, but would need to load and convert....not a nice thought.

Hey, wait a minute, wonder what ISOBuster would do?

Came to the rescue in the twinkling of an eye (ok, maybe a bit longer than that, but I do have a couple hundred TIF photos back in pretty short order).
THANKS VERY MUCH! for your product and I couldn't get here fast enough to register it.

Tom, Kansas City, United States

Thank you so much, ISOBuster has managed to get back some pictures I thought I would never see again. What a fantastic product

Martin Cohen, Farnborough Hampshire, United Kingdom

Thanks for including my suggestion of a sort option like Windows Explorer in the new IsoBuster update.
I back up my data to DVD-R and DVD+R using Nero multisessions with these options: replace files with changed date or size, add new files, and remove deleted files.
I name each session with the date.
Windows Explorer sees only the latest versions of the files in the folders, but with IsoBuster I can go back in time to any of the preceding sessions. It's the perfect way to get old versions out.
I set Nero to the UDF file system for the best compatibility with long file names and paths.
With the new sort options in IsoBuster it's easy to find what I'm looking for in folder and file lists.
It's also great to know that if a disk should deteriorate, IsoBuster will probably read it!

Ed, Eureka, California, USA

Wow,
Your ISO buster saved my data. I had 3.5gig of very sensitive data that I couldn't read. Months of scans and hundreds, maybe thousands of hand scanned documents. I learned a valuable lesson. BACKUP THE BACKUPS! I now have 4 duplicate copies of this data. Thanks for making this software.

Scott Oberst, IA, USA

Thanks for your quick assistance and a great program. I can't tell you how many clients that I have who use UDF packet writing software who can't seem to close out their disks. No matter how many times I explain it, they never seem to be able to do it. Your program is a life saver....

John W. Harrison, Victoria TX, USA

I was able to successfully install IsoBuster with your help. The first time I used it was a miracle. I had a CD backup of an old DOS program that I had on my old WIN98 computer and when I had first tried to read it, it showed as a blank disk. Using Isobuster I could immediately read the data and transfer it in usable form to my new XP computer. That has saved me several hundred hours of work since the data represents 30 years of collecting my family geneologic data that would have had be re-entered, Thanks for your fine product.

John C. Speaks, Williamsville New York, USA
