SWAUG REVIEW: LiteOn DVD ReWriter On Amiga : Comment 5 of 13ANN.lu

Call me stupid, and perhaps this is how *everyone* masters their DVD-Rs with dvdrtools, but to actually be compliant, shouldn't the ISO be encapsulated in UDF, as per http://www.burnworld.com/dvd/primer/filesystem.htm?

The manual page for my old? version of mkisofs notes:

-udf Include UDF support in the generated filesystem image. UDF sup-
port is currently in alpha status and for this reason, it is not
possible to create UDF only images. UDF data structures are
currently coupled to the Joliet structures, so there are many
pitfalls with the current implementation. There is no UID/GID
support, there is no POSIX permission support, there is no sup-
port for symlinks. Note that UDF wastes the space from sector
~20 to sector 256 at the beginning of the disk in addition to
the spcae needed for real UDF data structures.

...so it is/was experimental in this particular software, but it's supposed to be part of the spec. Will Windows happily read a purely ISO DVD? Can Mac of both flavors happily automount same?
