Your problem is the filenames - they are not ISO-compliant. Burning CDs has nothing to do with the format of the individual files. The file format it was complaining about was that of the ISO image, not the files. Basically, your files should be unique in their first 8 characters, and if you want to go beyond 8.3 filenames, you need to enable either Joliet or Rock Ridge.
