It destroyed the image, that sucks. Hopefully you made a back-up before testing it. Was that for DVD or CD?

ya i had a back-up.
anyhow can anyone who have Kingdom Hearts [SLUS-20370] do the following things
1) copy the image to a temp folder.
2) then copy the 7za file from the packiso folder and paste it in the same temp folder.
3) open CMD then go to temp folder and enter following command
7za.exe a "Kingdom Hearts (U) [SLUS-20370].7z" "Kingdom Hearts (U) [SLUS-20370].iso"
4) this should make a 7z file check the crc of that file and update if it CRC is 9bd845dd or not.
i think that the 7za file in packiso is a modified version of 7z and that what make same zip on different system, packiso was just a front end to do all those ecm and other functionalities automatically

can not do that because my image must be fixed, sorry
i think that the 7za file in packiso is a modified version of 7z
it must be the original one, just the beta version of 4.53
7-Zip (A) 4.53 beta Copyright (c) 1999-2007 Igor Pavlov 2007-08-27
packiso was just a front end to do all those ecm and other functionalities automatically

7za is just Standalone-Version, thats all differences !
You can replace it with newer one, but take always Standalone-Version (7za), do not simply rename the other 7z version, that will not work !
Newest release
7za458

Don't use the 4.58 beta as it slightly compresses better than previous versions

Stick with 4.57 which offers the same compression ratio as 4.53 beta.
(Else packiso'd files will differ between people using 4.53b-4.57 and 4.58b. Since packiso was invented to offer something very similar to torrentzip but with better compression using different 7zip version destroys this benefit

)

Hmm now that make things clear, so as long as two peoples are using same version of 7z they will have same zip's, so all we need is some front end like Packiso but for ps2 images right?

yeah, that would be nice!
but ZorrentZip doesnt support large files (above 2gb) and thats the problem of packIso too.
