Partner Management Strategies
== libdvdread.plus ==


Many of today’s industries and businesses rely on different channel partners to deliver their products and services to end consumers. Without channel partners many industries and businesses would not succeed in reaching different global consumers. For many of these industries partner management is very important to achieve success and get better profits and revenues. Effective partner management strategies require different tactics and plans for them to be very successful but the most important fact to remember with this strategy is real-time communication is very important to monitor and maintain a good record of all channel partners.

Partner management strategies are essential for the success of partnerships on all channels or retailers. Parent industries would need to come up with effective solutions to keep track, monitor progress and sales on all affiliate partners. There are several helpful strategies on implementing effective and efficient partner management and these should include:

1. Partner Portals – partner portal solutions are web based applications that enable many parent industries communicate effectively with all their channel partners. Many recent developments made on partner portals have enabled much other helpful functionality like online trainings, real time monitoring and certifications.  
Planned: create new libudfread library instead, just for reading UDF. Take the IFO part of dvdread into libifo. Retain compatibility with libdvdnav, and libdvdcss. Also work with libbluray.

2. Quality Partners – choosing quality partners over the quantity of channel partners is often a good strategy. Many industries often make the mistake of assuming that the more channel partners they have the better it is for their business. Often times this type of thinking is not very cost effective for parent industries, choosing only the best partners that could help your business is far better than just getting more partners or retailers in as affiliate partners.


3. Avoid Channel Conflicts – channel conflicts are one of the most common problems encountered in a business network. To avoid channel conflicts an industry must be able to implement great systems and solutions that can further facilitate effective communication and setting of standards and goals.
I have made some patches to the regular '''libdvdread''' library used by many developers. Alas, I have had no luck in getting them accepted into the upstream repository, which has forced me to maintain a second version myself.  


4. Dealer Support – parent industries or businesses would need to come up with efficient ways of conducting dealer support. Many partner portal solutions have integrated real-time dealer support and training on their systems that helps a lot of industries save a lot of time and money.
Patches include:


* Bring UDF compatibility from base 1.92, to 2.50. This adds Bluray and BD5 ISO format.
* Properly handle UDF chains, instead of assuming they are contiguous, and without gap.
* Move filesizes from 32bit to 64bit.
* Add POSIX style '''opendir(3)''', '''readdir(3)''' API to add the ability to retrieve contents of ISO files & input-devices.
* Add POSIX style '''open(3)''' of non-DVD related files. (Reading playlists, certificates etc)
* Allow API call to set IO handlers. Allowing all IO to libdvdread be developer defined. (Adding RAR support, or FTP perhaps)


Coming up with the best partner management solutions is not a simple matter, you would need the expertise of marketing specialists and several great systems or solutions out there. Though at times it may not seem cost effective, but do trust me that all the help and cost of systems would sooner pay for itself with the revenues and profits it can generate for your business. There are now several great online resources for marketing experts and business solutions. Try to check the different articles and websites that feature such products and services, oftentimes vendors have free webinars that you could attend to see if their products and services would help your growing industry. There are also several similar sites that have online customer support that can answer any questions you might have about their products. Finding the perfect system and coming up with the most efficient strategy would really help you and your industry compete in today’s fierce market.
