Re: [Dvdrtools-users] mkudffs help

Ummm........ no.

And, of course, that was it!  It compiled up all nicely.  I am not sure if I 
needed to recompile the whole kernel, or just the modules -- but just to be 
safe, I recompiled the whole kernel.

Thank you for your help, Mal.

So Udf seems to be working so far on DVD+RW media.  It doesn't, however, seem 
to work at all on cdrw media (at least in this drive).  It gives me the exact 
same output:  trying to change type of multiple extents.

I am not sure what is going on there...

If anyone has any thoughts on this, I would love to hear them.  

Thanks so much for your help.
