Probably not. The cd9660 file system for FreeBSD normally detects and
supports both extensions for long file names on CDROMs. Unless you've
disabled one of them in the mount options, the only way a CDROM won't
have long file names is if it wasn't written with them.

What version of FreeBSD are you running? If it's old enough, it may
not have support for MS's long file name extensions to cd9660, which
would mean you wouldn't see them.
