I wouldn't be surprised if the culprit is genisoimage and not k3b. It looks like the default filesystem is ISO9660. The man page doesn't say which level, but Level 1 can't handle long filenames. If the filename length matters, I use the "-l" switch to enable full 31-characters. There are other options that enable longer filenames. "man genisoimage" is your friend. I find it amazing that splitting an iso file results in something a DVD player can read. Actually, this could be the problem too, depending on how the meta information about the filesystem is stored. As others have said, it's probably best if you create multiple DVD-sized iso files rather than chopping up one giant file. It sure seems like there would be some script out there that handles disk spanning, but nothing came up with my initial google search. Maybe because everyone else does what I do, which is fire up Brasero and select the files by hand?

For this time I have no idea which exactly options for the .iso making program parameters but I can assure You that it is possible - I did that many times years ago (I did it w/ k3b) and there was no need to change any how dir./file -names - all looked well.

genisoimage and truncating of file names
I am creating an iso with genisoimage prepatory to burning it to dvd for backing up of my music collection, and on checking the resulting disc I'm finding that the mp3 name is truncated to the first word of its title. I feel that this is happening with genisoimage and would obvioulsy like to have the full mp3 title. The command to genisoimage is . genisoimage -o ~/irishceltic.iso /home/boztu/Music/Irish\ Celtic\ Music\ Collection\ Version\ 2/ .. which creates the file irishceltic.iso . I cant see anything in man genisoimage or its help file of any use for this problem, and would welcome any help that people can give.
