UDF VOLUME READER
This file is for users that do not own a copy of Easy
CD Creator and just want to read discs that have been
written in UDF.
The UDF Reader (version 5.1.1.213) is included with
DirectCD 5.1, so if you have Easy CD Creator Platinum 5.1 or
Basic version 5.11 or later you do not need to download this
file.
Enables some MultiRead CD-ROM drives to read UDF
formatted CD-RW discs (such as those written with DirectCD)
under Windows 95, 98 and 98 SE, Windows NT 4.0 SP3 or higher
and Windows 2000/XP.
Once installed, you do not need to take any special
steps to activate the UDF Reader; it is constantly active in
the background, waiting for you to mount a UDF disc. This is
a free download for the convenience of users who do not own
Easy CD Creator. However, Roxio only provides technical
support for the UDF Reader if you purchased Easy CD Creator,
and have a valid Tech Support ID (TSID) that came with the
product. If you do not have Easy CD Creator, we do not
provide technical support for this product.

| First, when a CD was formatted using DirectCD v3 or 4, a
UDF driver was
| written to the CD for upload to a different host computer,
so it might be
| read by the computer. So, Adaptec foresaw the situation,
and provided a
| solution.
|
| Unfortunately, those versions are not compatible with XP,
and any attempt to
| install the driver on an XP system will cause a myriad of
problems with NO
| prior warning, which are solvable only via a tedious
uninstall process that
| is NOT covered in any SINGLE help file from Roxio. I had
to use a
| combination of 4 articles from Roxio and Microsoft to find
the right
| combination of uninstall processes, and then had to
re-install my DVD/CD
| burning software -- NOT Roxio!
|
| I could find NO update on the Roxio web site from a
packaged version of
| EZ-CD / DirectCD v3 / 4 to a current (XP-compliant)
version.
|
| Likely you will have to find a friend without XP, load the
driver on the
| older OS, and copy the CD to a regular non-UDF format.
Then get a current
| CD/DVD app with DLA (Drive Letter Access), such as Sonic
MyCD.
