UDF support in Mac OS X is, well, stone age.
There is some minimal low-performance support for
UDF 1.0.2 in updated Jaguar/Panther/Tiger. Apple
has made a feeble attempt to improve UDF support
in Tiger, but it's still buggy, slow, and
embarressingly behind the PC world. There are
some not-free 3rd party packages that support UDF
1.5 and 2, but they're not very good quality
either.
Bottom line: As I was told by a guy at Apple's
genius bar last week, and again by phone support
-- for advanced UDF operations, it's best to use
a PC. "advanced" == reading all those UDF discs
that work fine in OS 9 but can't be read in OS X.
Wel, I can read my Mavica-formatted CD-Rs using Joliet Volume Access
extension in Mac OS 9.
Joliet is an (originally) MS-proprietary enhancement of ISO-9660.
Nothing to do with UDF.
