> Will Kodak (cd writer) software support the Rock Ridge extensions for
UNIX?
I don't know. Could you call KIC: 800-242-2424, ext. 52? They can talk
you through this.
I suspect that the answer will be yes, but have not been able to decipher
the multitude of CD-ROM standards, particularly UNIX.
> Are the added features in the hardware …
The primary feature difference is in the hardware. It is the ability to
read the barcode and human-readable unique serial number that we created
for our brand of writable CD discs. An example of this can be seen on our
Photo CD discs, where the index print on the jewel case cover has the
serial number, and the disc itself has the same number. Our home Photo CD
players recognize each Photo CD disc as unique, and can remember (RAM chip)
instructions on how to play the disc back.
In other areas, this serial number may prove useful.
