Mixed Mode DVD - Is it compatible with both PC/Mac

I'm working on a Mixed Mode DVD and since I'm working on a PC and don't have access to a Mac, I wanted to know if there were any potential compatibility issues I should be aware of.

Assuming what I'm including as the Data portion of the disc is already compatible with the with a PC/Mac, will Architect render the disk suitable for use in both formats?

Whether you use DVDA, Nero or whatever to actually burn the disc, the file system's going to be the same for DVD player compatibility, so if a MAC can read the DVD, it'll read whatever added content you include, just like your PC.

That said, try not to assume your added content is MAC friendly... have someone test it or test it yourself on a MAC or *nix system or anywhere it might be played really.
