This is a filesystem that stores both a UDF directory and a legacy ISO-9660 directory referring to the same file data (so the data is only stored once) Produces an ISO image that has only the Universal Disk Format (UDF) file system on it. The trick with UDF images is that you must: Burn as a data format disc Finalize the disk with the image making sure nothing else can be adde there is no iso file to click on, only a readme.txt file, which reads This disc contains a UDF file system and requires an operating system that supports the ISO-13346 UDF file system specificationĬreate a UDF/ISO-9660 image with mkisofs The mkisofs tool has the ability to generate a combined UDF and ISO-9660 bridge filesystem in a single pass. On Microsoft Windows, if you right-click on a UDF disk image, Nero will give you the option to burn the disc image to a disc.
In practice, it has been most widely used for DVDs and newer optical disc formats, supplanting ISO 9660.Due to its design, it is very well suited to incremental updates on both recordable and (re. Universal Disk Format (UDF) is a profile of the specification known as ISO/IEC 13346 and ECMA-167 and is an open vendor-neutral file system for computer data storage for a broad range of media.
