I burned a datadvd witch contains a dir with a lot off files and a few subdirs.
Burning went allright and after burning I tested to see I could acces these files on my peg2..ok. Even copying etc is ok on the pegasos. Then I wanted to copy the contains from the dvd onto the harddisk from the xp pc. I can read the dvd ok and also I am able to copy single files but there are a lot of dir's which won't let them copy themselves. Pc says unable to read from source.. Also information off these files on pc says read only if that makes a difference? Pegasos tells me files are readable writeable.. Please some advice. Latest Fpan with key btw and +DVD. |

I had problems also using Frying Pan but with WinUAE, i make a DVD with a five directories with .info icon files and a lot of files inside, but when i try to read from PC my case is worst, i can't see any file or directory, and from WinUAE all the .info icon files are lost. Maybe is something wrong with Frying Pan and DVD's, because if i include one dir only with a lot of files, then all the contain is ok.

Initial thought is path length. Are there lots of nested folders on the DVD?

It's a root dir containing 3259 subdirs and 51687 files.
Subdirs also contain a lot off files. I also tried an other dir much smaller same problem. As soon as I pack the dir into one file (.zip) and unpack it on the xp machine it is ok. But this is quite a longgoing project as packing and unpacking takes quite some time. Maybe as someone on morphzone suggested it has something to do with the names off the files? |

Did you ever solve this?
I've had similar problems before. Infact a CD I burnt using AmiDVD on OS4 had one dir that did not show on Workbench but did exist! :-? But It think the problem is the read only protections bits. You see, although it is logical for a CDROM disc to be read only, when a dir is copied to the HD it will also be read only and thus non-writable! :-o That said, I don't know how to stop a disc from being unreadable,but kmnow it can happen. For example, I wanted to check out the X1000 boot CD in my Mac. It mounted it but the disc was completely empty! :-o
