Supported media types
CD/DVD types of media written in UDF or ISO are supported. (except for DVD-RAM)
* not supported Blu-ray media
The ISO and UDF formats
To understand the ISO and UDF formats, you have to understand the concept of file
systems on storage devices.
Since ODDs only support the ISO and UDF file systems, the data needs to be converted
to a file system that the AV system can recognize for the data on the ODD to be used.
Note
AV System:
Supports the FAT32 file system.
File System:
When an HDD, DVD/CD media or flash memory device is
connected to a computer, Windows Explorer shows the file name, the size and
the creation date for the files saved on the storage device, by using the
information saved on the file system. In addition, the file system stores the
locations of the data that make up the files on the media.
ISO:
This file system is the most widely used file system for ODDs. This file
system is used when users save data onto a media in the ODD by using a disc
burning program such as NERO or ROXIO.
UDF:
This is a file system for ODD media that enables reading and writing data
onto the media such as when using an HDD or USB memory device.
For your reference, you can format a RW media in the UDF file system by right-
clicking over the media in Windows Explorer in Windows VISTA or later.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a limit to the number or size of the files?
Up to 330 files are supported and files in the root directory and the sub directories just
below the root directory are recognized. The maximum size of a file is just under 4 GB.
There is no limit to the size of data saved onto a single disc.
In AV system support mode, it takes longer to recognize a disc.
It takes longer to recognize the discs as data on the ISO/UDF file system is converted to
the FAT32 file system for AV systems to recognize and transmit the data.
In addition, the time delay due to the conversion is determined by the number and size of
the files saved on the disc. (Approximately 30 seconds is required for 1GB of data.)
I have connected the ODD but there is no response.
Because the file system conversion takes longer, if you connect a high-capacity disc, the
connected device (such as TV) will require some time to recognize the Samsung external-
type ODD (1G = approximately 30 seconds).
Note
When recognizing the ODD, the LED of the ODD blinks continuously.
PCs, TVs, and other devices with insufficient USB bus power will not work
correctly if you use only one USB port.
