We often convert a bunch of dmg files into the bzip2 compressed format in order to save space. But every once in a while, it throws up a dialog box saying that the results are larger than the original, and which do we want to use. It would be nice to be able to have it automatically keep the smaller of the two.
Also, it would be nice to have it automatically do a scan for restore on any dmg for which that can be done, and for which it hasn't been done.
But a great program otherwise

While most of what it does could be done from Apple supplied command line and GUI utilities, this is my preferred tool for its intended functions. It is far easier and quicker for me to drag and drop a bunch of files onto DMG converter, then it is to accomplish the same goal via the other tools.
My most common use for DMG Converter is to convert existing disk images to the bzip2 format. The bzip2 format typically results in smaller file sizes.
The only improvements that I can think of for this software, would be if I could set what the default behavior should be in the unusual instances when the converted image is larger than the original. There is a preference for asking me. But I'd rather that the smallest file were the one kept, whether that is the original or the converted.
It would also be nice to be able to drop a whole folder or drive with DMG images in subdirectories and have it traverse the directory structure and reconvert them.

Needs a fix asap.
Can the dmg file made by using other software (FreeDMG,DropDMG,etc) on OS X 10.6 do the mount with OS X 10.5 or less?
Time might hang in the fix of this problem because the author is not using OS X 10.6 (GM) now. (and doesn't have OS X 10.6 (GM).)

I was using DropDMG but DMGConverter is better for converting multiple images; I can drop dozens of DMG images on and it effortlessly converts them serially without choking like DropDMG does.
A few suggestions:
1. DMGConverter will only create new images from folders - I'd like to be able to drop a file or group of files on it to create an image. DropDMG can do this, so it's definitely possible.
2. When an image, file, or folder is dropped on it, DMGConverter should be able to figure out what to do. Currently I must switch to the "Convert" tab if I want to convert a disk image, or switch to the "new image" tab if I want a new image, adding extra steps to what should be a one step process. If I drop a folder is dropped on DMGConverter, then obviously I don't want to convert a disk image, likewise if an image is dropped on it, then usually I don't to make an image of an image. Make DMGConverter smart enough so I don't have switch modes all the time.
Otherwise, this is a great freeware app.

"The disk image you are opening may be damaged and could damage your system.
Are you sure you want to open this disk image?"
I went ahead mounting the disk image and installed the app which now works properly.

Starting two days when I'm trying to create a dmg from a folder under my documents folder/subfolder or to convert an dmg from a file within my subfolders I have each time an error saying "error ID 2: no such file or directory".
now It only work if source folder or dmg file (for creation or convertion) is on the desktop.
It never happens before with old version.
Thanks for this great utility.
I'm on MacOSX 10.5.8.

I use in in an Intel MacBook Pro with the Operating System fully updated.
This problem might be solved by starting after the preferences file is deleted.
Preferences file is in the following:
/ Library / Preferences / jp.sunskysoft.DMGConverter5.plist
This problem seems to occur uncommonly.

"Version 5.0.4r2 Universal Binary dmg.zip format (5.0MB) (2009/6/27)"
So the proper thing to do is to contact the developer and not post here with such matters.
There is no change in the application.

At present, I have not understood the cause of this problem yet.
Because I do not have the machine that makes MacOS10.4 run now, it is likely to become a little more in the correction.
