I often burn DVDs on-the-fly with thousands of little files etc, and some of them have *extremely* long filenames, so the filename is truncated.  I don't mind this, as it can't be helped and the filename is insanely too long in the first place, but I can't find a way to make it KEEP the EXTENSION, so to clarify

which would be much preferred.  Even a warning ala old Nero versions like "I'm gonna truncate something here... that ok with you?" would be workable.

So please tell me how to do this if I am blind and just missed it.

To avoid this problem, it is recommanded to use 'File'->'New'->'UDF DVD image', then add files and burn to a disc.

PS: This is a limitation of ISO volume, we will improve that at future versions later.

Since version 8.6.5.2160, UltraISO could keep the extension of truncated *extremely* long filenames.
