Prassi DVD disk image

Files with gi extension are disk images created using Prassi burning software. Old format, but still supported by some burning software.

Further details:

File extension gi is associated with older disk image format created by Prassi burning software (Prassi Primo DVD), a program distributed with some professional DVD/RW burners.

Prassi also licensed and later sold the product, so it is highly likely that programs with different name used the same file format. Such programs like Sony CD Extreme, Veritas My CD, My CD Pro, or Sonic RecordNow! were often bundled with various DVD/RW drives.

In 2001 Veritas acquired Prassi and the company is now defunct, the original software no longer sold or supported. However some 3rd party software still support GI format.

CD images created in Prassi software typically had gcd file extension instead.

What is the meaning of a file extension?

File extensions are characters that appear after the dot in a computer file's name. For example, the file "unknown-file.gi" has the file extension "gi". This is used to identify which program should open the file or what file type it is.
File extensions help you organize and manage files. They provide a quick and easy way to identify and associate the file type with the appropriate software.
