UDF is a file format for CD/DVDs, as I recall it has something to do with
either your CD-ROM drivers are not running correctly, or your DVD drive on
your computer is not compatible with UDF formatted DVDs.

Which OS are you running? What is the make and model of your DVD drive (go
into Device Manager and find the DVD drive, it should say the make and model
of the drive).

You should start a "new" topic when you post to usenet, even if the problem
is related that way you appear at the top of the list, instead of burried
deep in the newsgroup.
