The Venus CD (which BTW I also have) is RockRidge only, not Joliet
(AFAIK)
and you're right, permissions are okay on that one.
I should also have expressed it as joliet-ONLY in the thread title.

Could be, but it really doesn't say on their Web site. Besides, as I am
using
my company's cd-writer and software to burn my own cd's, I cannot very
well
choose the software ... (if I could, I'd use Linux and cdrecord ... sigh
!!!)
I'll have a good look at the joliet/vfat code, maybe I can find
something.
Anyway, IMHO, it's still a bug, because one can have very good reasons
to
want to _force_ the mode, and as the mode= keyword exists, it _should
not_
be ignored even if the specific FS can't do it. At the very least, it
should
return some code or message ...
Thanks anyway.
