mkisofs known how to convert them to UTF-16 from yourcurrent locale, I believe. Try simply using mkisofs -r -J -quiet
Well I have managed to move my files to UTF-8. Then I did: mkisofs -o file.iso -R -J /hebrew/files/dir Then burnt it. Loading it in windows, I see Gibrish. It seems that mkisofs didn't convert the file names from UTF-8 to UTF-16 good. Kfir
