Rvz To Iso Upd | Convert

    Cause: Your hard drive is formatted as FAT32. ISO files are often >4GB (especially dual-layer Wii games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl). FAT32 cannot handle single files larger than 4GB. Fix: Convert to a folder on an NTFS (Windows) or exFAT (Mac/Linux) drive.

    RVZ is a lossy format if " Junk Data" was removed. When creating an RVZ file, Dolphin often removes "junk data" (padding data) to save space. If you convert an RVZ back to ISO, Dolphin will fill that space with dummy data. The game will play exactly the same, but the file size will be larger (usually 4.7GB or 8.5GB), and the resulting ISO will not be a 1:1 copy of the original retail disc (the MD5 hash will not match redump records).
