Hi David,

I don't know what changes exactly cdw made, but I suspect that this 
happens because Nero and cdw use different default ISO9660/Joliet options.

Perhaps cdw, since it uses its own defaults, modifies properties of 
whole new disc (old/Nero session and new/cdw session). The options that 
cdw uses (i.e. passes them to mkisofs) that may affect file names are:
-joliet-long
-J
-iso-level
Please see mkisofs man page for more details.

It may also be "fault" of Nero, perhaps it uses some non-standard 
ISO9660/Joliet options that cdw/mkisofs can't handle in any way.

This all is just my guess, as I haven't made any tests with discs 
created with Nero. If you could send me examples of changes of file 
names then I may know better what has happened, and if anything can be 
done about this.

Best regards,
Kamil
