Universal Disk Format
<storage, standard> (UDF) A CD-ROM file system standard
that is required for DVD ROMs. UDF is the OSTA's
replacement for the ISO 9660 file system used on CD-ROMs,
but will be mostly used on DVD. DVD multimedia disks use
UDF to contain MPEG audio and video streams.
To read DVDs you need a DVD drive, the kernel driver for the
drive, MPEG video support, and a UDF driver. DVDs containing
both UDF filesystems and ISO 9660 filesystems can be read
without UDF support.
UDF can also be used by CD-R and CD-RW recorders in
packet writing mode.

Universal Disk Format
Universal Disk Format (UDF) is an open, vendor-neutral file system for computer data storage for a broad range of media. In practice, it has been most widely used for DVDs and newer optical disc formats, supplanting ISO 9660. Due to its design, it is very well suited to incremental updates on both recordable and (re)writable optical media. UDF was developed and maintained by the Optical Storage Technology Association (OSTA).
In engineering terms, Universal Disk Format is a profile of the specification known as ISO/IEC 13346 and ECMA-167.
