Hallo !
Long ago there was the question if DVD drives would work in DOS. Well, i
finally got a DVD disc so i could try it out. This is what 4DOS running
under Caldera OpenDOS 7.01 gave me after DIR /S:
Volume in drive F is TRAINSPOTTI
Directory of f:\*.*
AUDIO_TS <DIR> 14.02.99 10:09
VIDEO_TS <DIR> 14.02.99 11:44
0 bytes in 2 file(s) 0 bytes allocated
Directory of f:\audio_ts\*.*
. <DIR> 14.02.99 10:09
.. <DIR> 14.02.99 10:09
0 bytes in 2 file(s) 0 bytes allocated
Directory of f:\video_ts\*.*
. <DIR> 14.02.99 11:44

vts_02_1.vob409219072 14.02.99 11:45
371.390.464 bytes in 15 file(s) 371.390.464 bytes allocated
Total for: f:\*.*
371.390.464 bytes in 19 file(s) 371.390.464 bytes allocated
0 bytes free
So it looks like it does work, somehow. But the bytes allocated message
is a little strange... I suspect some internal counter got an (or
problably several) overrun.
By the way, these contents are the film "Trainspotting", and my drive is
a Hitachi GD2000. A wonderful machine, it is fantastically noiseless and
it reads everything that's round and somehow reflective.
