more than 32 characters in a Volume Label

[Insane2986]

Hi. I'm creating a DVD compilation, and my label requires me to create a volume longer than 32 characters. Is there any program that will let me do this?

Thanks for any help.

Make an image with whatever program you use, and then use DVD Decrypter to change the volume label. It's on the 'Tools' menu under 'ISO'.

A DVD-ROM drive, and preferably a dvd player too (although not required)

Ok I made the ISO with UltraISO, but whenever I enter the ISO9660 label in DVD Decrypter it only lets me put in 32 characters again :confused: If I try to enter the UDF label it lets me input as many as I want, but then I get a blank label on the burned DVD. Any suggestions? :confused:

Yeah, ISO is limited to 32 chars, you cant go against the specs!

UDF allows more chars - as you've seen.

You MUST be using 3.5.4.0 for this to work properly. Other versions had bugs.

Adding to this:

Windows XP and Me (and 2000 I think) can natively read UDF, so your 32+ chars will be OK in your PC.

DVD players read UDF v1.02, so your player will also not choke on 32+ chars.

Ok I really must be doing something wrong! For the life of me I can't get the label to show up right when I burn the ISO or mount it as an image :(

I suspect it might be the program I'm using to create the ISO

In UltraISO, I click create a DVD-Video compilation, point it to the VIDEO_TS.IFO file, and it creates the appropriate VIDEO_TS folders, etc. Does this look right to you guys?

I leave the label blank, save it and open DVD Decrypter.

Create the UDF label, then save it and mount/burn in Nero.

But the label is still cut off at 32 characters :confused:

aahhh damn XP to HELL! Turns out the ISO's did, in fact, have the correct label. DVD Decrypter recognized the full label, but windows explorer wasn't displaying the full thing, so I thought it wasn't working :mad:
