nightdweller Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 -Hello Lava I understand that a NTFS/FAT32 machines allow filenames to be 255 characters long. However, I noticed that some cd/dvd burn software does not seem to let me burn filenames that are that long.. even though windows XP is okay with it. Just wondering if there is a magic number out there that is safe with all burn software, or if there is a work-around? Thanx Quote Link to comment
sth Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 This is a limitation of the ISO-9660 file system for standard CDs. There are propietary file systems that allow you to use more liberal file names BUT they are not universal. Joliet and Rockridge are two key names for extended file naming systems.
