    Recently I used ImgBurn to burn a couple of files on DVD. But the filenames on my DVD only went up to 11 characters (8.3). I used ISO 9660+ UDF for the burn. I recently switched from Nero and when using Nero the full filenames were shown and not just the first 8 letters. I need full filenames so that I can know what the files are. How should I configure the filesystem so that I can have around 20+ characters and spaces and make sure that my standalone DVD (Philips DVDR 3400) can read it all? Thanks in advance.

    I use the UDF for the name. I believe you have up to 63 characters to label your disk there.

    Make sure you have UDF and Joliet checked.
    You asked:

    If you are burning AVI files, your Philips standalone may shorten the filenames like my DVP 5982 does.

    Oh good because I thought enabling Joliet would make the disc unreadable. That makes sense. Thank you again

    In Iso 9660 should I leave it on level 1 or level 2 (I know level x isn't readable almost everywhere), if Joliet + UDF are enabled?

    Mmm, thanks. I guess I should just include Joliet. By default does Nero include Joliet? Because Nero's defaults on my other computer did what it needed to do.
