Mike Richter's Cockamamie Mumbo Jumbo on UDF (inherent)

This is Mikey's response to the question why Roxio's DirectCD causes
Win2k system unstable:

======================
From: Mike Richter

There is an inherent problem in UDF, === Inherent ?!
particularly with fixed-length packets

It is that the directory information for the disc is held and
modified in RAM between loading the disc and ejecting it.
======================

In the case of the UDF as implemented by DirectCD, the directory is not
held in ram until the disc is ejected -- supposedly the inherent problem
of UDF:

Mike Richter (Acraptec ****) crapped:

snip crap on directory held in ram until eject

I don't believe this is true with the latest versions of
DirectCD (I'm using 2.5d with Win98SE).

I've watched the disc write lights on my Plextor drives when
ejecting a DirectCD CD-RW disc, and the drive never does any
writing at that time.

Once, in an attempt to prove this, I wrote a bunch of files to
a DirectCD CD-RW disc. As soon as the write pulses ceased,

I pressed the computer's RESET button.

After the computer restarted, the CD-RW disc was fine, and
all the files I had just written were fully accessible.

You may well be correct; I have not been using fixed-length

However, if that's the case, then there's a different problem
- scrubbing the directory area. I don't know if/how that's
solved.

Unfortunately, I have no inside track on information from Adaptec,
only what I glean from using the programs. If I get confirmation
of your information (from them or by experimentation), I'll
certainly change my answer.

Note: DirectCD 2.5d was released in 7/99, and Mikey crapped about
the "eject" in 8/99 and 9/99.

When you have just written the data, the directory is in RAM
(which is why the format is fragile).

Mike Richter crapped:

When you load a fixed-length packet disc, the directory
information is read from the disc and translated in RAM.
When you write to the disc, the data are recorded immediately
but the directory is updated only in RAM.

When you eject the disc, the directory information is
transformed and written back to the disc.

I don't believe this is true with the latest versions of
DirectCD (I'm using 2.5d with Win98SE).
