Why isn't the "Allow more than 255 characters in path" option in "Relax ISO Restrictions" relected while burning? Even though I checked the box, I still get "The following Joliet files or folders had to be renamed to make them compatible with the CD file system:" error and those files are truncated in the burned CD. I've looked online everywhere and there is no elaboration on why it shouldn't work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Joliet has (IIRC) a 31-character limit on filenames.

The 255-character bit is for multiple long directory names, eg " \Really Dumb Music\Hanson Tribute Band\They're All Girls\Issac Is A Horse\Taylor is the Princess\Zack is the Butch\They all suck anyhow\I'm running out of things to say\But I want to fill 255 characters\Or some irritating nitpicker anal retentive ATOTer\Will actually COUNT them\And flame me for it\song.ogg "

I think the Joliet filename/foldername character-limit is 64. I could be wrong though.

I counted more than 31 characters, but according to Nero below, the limit is 31 characters?

From http://www.nero.com/en/content/c1004602931610.html

ISO Level 2 allows up to 31 characters fordirectory names and filenames. We recommend this level when the CD will be read in Windows 95, 98, NT, ME, and 2000.
