First I used CacheCDFS, which is supposed to be multisession, but isn't (never was on my system anyhow).



It's true that CacheCDFS only sees the first session by default. But it can be configured to ask which session to use each time a CD is inserted.

Mind that, viewing the readme, it doesn't appear to read UDF (DVD format) disks.  Is that correct?  (I've been wanting a UDF capable driver forever.)


There is no file system for the Amiga which can read UDF. Even AllegroCDFS which claims so does not do it.

Most DVDs can be read by every CD file system, though, because they also contain an ISO directory.

In CDFSPrefs you can select either Multi Session or Multi Volume. If you select Multi Session, it will read only the first session (which means that multisession support is broken). But if you select Multi Volume, you get a popup window whenever you insert a new CD which lets you choose from all available sessions.

I don't see the difference. Multivolume just means that you don't include the contents of previous sessions in the new directory.
