not in the specific software which implements UDF.

Fixed-length packets create the least reliable, most fragile
format available for writing CDs.

However, they can still be read
if written to the standard (as DCD always has).

I was using Direct Cd to load files on a cd when it burped.
Now the cd can't be read by the program or windows.

My guess is that you were writing fixed-length packets

That is the least reliable and most fragile format available
for CD writing.

I have been a user of Dell computers and Roxio Direct CD
In all fairness to Dell, I believe the main culprit here is Roxio.

5. I put in a previously formatted cd to be written on, one that
has previously written data, and the Direct CD sreen comes on,
saying the cd is blank.

You appear to be writing fixed-length packets, recognized to be
by far the least reliable and most fragile format available for CD.

The issue is not the software but the format.

I have about 500Mb of data on a CD-RW. I access almost all of
the data daily, but last week I accessed the disc through my
HP 8250i and DirectCD 2.5, and 0 objects were visible.

Fixed-length packets are the least reliable format for CD-R.

I have EZCDC 5.02b... I burned a 10X CDRW with 5 small sessions
over a period of a few weeks just for small file ... transfer
to another computer. I went to burn another to it and found
I could not read it at all.

Is this a known bug with creator or the drive?

Neither. My guess is that you mean the DCD component of ECDC
and that you wrote fixed-length packets.

That is the least reliable format available and you seem to have
suffered from it.

I'm using Win 2K sp2 and ESCD 4.04 / DirectCD 3.05

About every third time I write to the Pioneer CD-RW drive
via DirectCD I get a message saying there's been an
unrecoverable error. If I try to access the CD drive,
it hangs the OS.

If you're writing fixed-length packets (to an erasable),
you may have discovered as most others have that

the format is very fragile and unreliable.

ways -- and made that fact public! )
