ISO picture files

I have a kenwood radio and am trying to download pictures to display on the screen. It says Supported file formats are: ISO9660 level 1 and 2 (not including advanced format) Romeo and Joliet and Windows advanced format. I can't figure out how to convert the .kbm file into an .iso file. I've written .kbm files to a cd, but when I try to download them to the radio, it says "no display file", and according to the kenwood picture download site, there may not be any files on the cd, otherwise, it would say "incorrect file" if there was a file on the cd, but it wasn't the right format. Here is the site im refering to, under the Troubleshooting section. My radio is actually a KDC-990, but that wasn't shown...its all basically the same. http://www.kenwood.net-disp.com/i/05products/xxv_01d/howtouse.html
 
If I'm not mistaken, ISO9660 is not an extension but a file system. And ISO file is a CD "image", but not a picture. Rather, a file that contains all the information on the disk(music, files, could be pictures, whatever.)

I have no experience with that system, but just glancing at the guide you posted, you simply need to write those files you made to a CD and load it into the player. Any burning program should support ISO9660...
 
What program would you use? I've tryed a couple, and didn't seem to do it......one is IMGburn and the other is MagicISO.

Once again, I have no experience doing this, but any burning program should work. Have you tried simply burning the .kbm file to a CD and popping it into the unit?
 
Is writting the same as burning? And yea, I tried a .kbm file, but it says "no display file" like there isn't a file on the cd.



EDIT: I went back to the kenwood display site and carefully read the details about making a wallpaper, and did it the way it said, and it worked. It will read the .kbm files. I was using the "save as" which makes it a .kbmprj (kbm project) and the radio doesn't read those. I used the "make kbm file" and then wrote it to the cd. Thanks for your help.
