Universal Disk Format (UDF) is a filesystem often used on DVD-ROMs (and other optical disc formats, such as Blu-ray Discs), but which is suitable for general purposes. Informally, it is the successor to ISO 9660.

It uses little-endian byte order format, as people sometimes find out the hard way.

Software

Operating systems often include drivers for UDF. On Linux, a UDF image file can be mounted using a loopback driver (mount -r -t udf -o loop ...).
