After I convert the iso's with this command (-h) all games work!
ziso -i (isofilename) -h

pfs batchkit manager uses maxcso to convert the game to zso it is more precise than that in python

I understand, but the games are not working.

You have to pad the ZSO files before you installing it ([Danixu tools can do that](https://github.com/Danixu/ziso_compressor/releases) or use hex editor to pad it manually).

I converted 1100 games with ZISO (with -h command). That's how much they fit on a 2TB hard drive. Then I put them in the DVD folder (in pfs batchkit manager). Everything installs easily and automatically. I didn't have to put the ISO files either, which is very nice!
Of course, I didn't have time to test them all, but of the ones I tried, they all work!

I will do some testing but So there is no longer a need for mode 1?

It needs Mode1.

But the ISO files I tried to convert (and which needed trim) with pfs batchkit manager (maxcso) didn't work (black screen).
ISO files converted with ZISO and installed with pfs batchkit manager work without problems.

Ok, I see

Yes you do not need the original iso because pfs batchkit manager decompresses the zso before to obtain the information from the iso and then transfer the zso

This is a very nice feature, because to install all the games at once I would have needed 5-6TB free.
