kevmc Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 For the widest possible compatibility with various Os's (xp, vista, linux, mac) for data dvds what would be the better choice of file systems. I might of thought ISO9660 Joliet, but I notice Imgburn is choosing ISO9660 UDF. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to selecting all three (ISO9660+ Joliet+UDF)?

Sossity Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I was told to use all 3 file systems, for UDF use revision 1.20, you could also check my posts, one in particular where I discuss this sort of thing with other forum members, I made a post called 31 character for file data names, or you could type in Sossity in the search box & my posts will come up, there you can open the one about 31 character file names & see other forum members responses to my similar questions.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Joliet is handy if you're burning avi / mp3 (as data, not audio) for use in a standalone dvd video player. They tend to not support UDF for anything other than proper DVD Video discs - so if you don't then have Joliet on the disc, it can only use ISO9660 and that's limited (by the specs) to very short file names - typically 8.3 characters (i.e. XXXXXXXX.YYY).
