Hi Daniel,

I think you misunderstand the way these systems usually work. Software
that wants to burn a DVD will talk directly to the device, not to some
filesystem. If you wanted to do that you'd probably be more interested
in writing an IO driver of some variety that created a fake DVD device
which instead of writing to a disk wrote itself to file, but that
wouldn't be a task to take on lightly. IIRC IOKit should point you in
the right direction.
