I got a message saying "ISO9660 Compliancy check failed!. Only the characters 'A-Z-'0-9' and '_' should be used. Would you like to continue". What happens if I go thrue with the name change and writes the disc. What does it mean? Is there anything to worry about when it comes to changing volume label? Like if the ISO9660 and UDF isn't the same and so on...Can anything go wrong?

It's perfectly allowable to have different volume names for ISO and UDF file systems.

 

Windows etc will read the UDF one by default anyway.

 

As corny said, just make sure you only use uppercase letters, numbers and the '_' in the ISO one.

How is it possible, then, that some commerical (pressed) DVD's have volume names with, not only, upper and lower case letters but spaces as well (ex. My Disc instead of MY_DISC)?

The space might not be a space. I know the old Amiga used to be able to generate a non-space that looked like a space by using an invisible character generated using alt+space (I think). I don?t see how or why a manufacturer would do it though.

The ISO9660 volume label will always be as specified above. (A-Z 0-9 _)

 

Like I said, the one you're seeing is the volume label that's part of the UDF (or Joliet) file system.

 

Those filesystems DO allow for other characters.

The only way I've made a name with spaces in ISO is copy it and paste it there. So, the theory about invisible characters is gone I think?
