Hello, George,
thank you for your response.
I just took a look and I am quite overwhelmed by the mass
of code and stuff to do.
I was about to find an implementation for the comparison
of the Iso1999Nodes.
Unfortunately I have not found reliable specs for ISO9660:1999, 9.3.
Do you have a document or source I could use, please?
Thank you very much and regards,
Sebastian
