The specified releases have been used for developing and testing the current dvdisaster version. Typically, slightly older and newer OS versions will also work. The dvdisaster project recommends GNU/Linux.

Windows 2000 SP3 and earlier versions are not supported. 4)Support for multicore processors varies. On some editions using additional cores for dvdisaster does not result in more performance.
