DVD file size

<Packet Writing> is a method for ad hoc copying of files to CD or DVD rather than burning them as a single compilation. <UDF (Universal Disk Format)> on the other hand is a file structure that was introduced by ISO 13346 to overcome various incompatability issues and to handle very large file sizes. The previous standard (ISO 9660) can only handle files up to 2GB in size

Nowadays, CD/DVD Packet Writing always uses the UDF file structure (or an extension thereof, such as Mount Rainier) whilst CD/DVD Compilations can use various file structures including, but not limited to, UDF and ISO 9660.

Hope the above links plus my explanation helps.

Hi Harrier,

Thanks for your suggestions re Nero versions.

 

beraine:

Just do a worldwide search (on eBay) for Nero 6 Reloaded. (Sorry, my
mistake, it is the Reloaded suite that appears in the listing I was referring to,
not Ultra). You'll see quotes in British pounds from a seller in Darlington UK.

Many thanks to howie123 and Menorcaman.

 

Addendum:

Just received a reply from Nero; it is oddly interesting.

It would be nice to know why, but I guess you can't divulge too much!
