DiscJuggler introduced the proprietary CDI format and DiscJuggler software in the late-1990s. The application includes tools for duplicating, extracting, and mastering discs. DiscJuggler supported multisession CD images, unique at the time. So, Dreamcast gamers used the software to burn games.
However, Padus discontinued DiscJuggler after releasing version 6 in 2006. While the program has many disc uses, the gaming community embraced it.
The CDI file extension is a DiscJuggler disk image format. It is in the Disk Image Files category with 133 other extensions. Padus introduced this format and software to work with CDI files. These files are compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and other operating systems.
To open a CDI file, choose from 9 programs. These include DiscJuggler, PowerISO and DAEMON Tools. Other programs also support CDI files.
The main use of DiscJuggler is creating CD and DVD images. It also burns copied discs. The proprietary CDI images contain identical data from the original disks. These files let you reproduce discs without needing the physical originals. You can store CDI files anywhere and directly mount them.
PowerISO, Daemon Tools, MagicISO and UltraISO open CDI files in Windows. The Daemon Tool for Mac accesses these files on Apple computers. The DealMaker software also appends the CDI extension to its data files.
