IMAPI_E_UDF_NOT_WRITE_COMPATIBLE

IMAPI_E_UDF_NOT_WRITE_COMPATIBLE is a UDF revision compatibility failure. IFileSystemImage exposes both the UDF revision of an imported image and the revisions it supports for image creation. A UDF filesystem can be readable enough to identify yet still be unsuitable for IMAPI to extend in a new session.

Compare imported and writable UDF revision capabilities

Read UDFRevision after import and enumerate UDFRevisionsSupported.
Record the source disc mastering tool and UDF revision when known.
Do not force a different UDF revision after import; revision-change restrictions are reported separately.

The error is about write compatibility, not generic UDF recognition. Copying files out and creating a fresh image with a supported revision is a different workflow from preserving the existing multisession structure. ECMA-167 defines the underlying volume/file structure model; IMAPI applies its own supported revision set when building the next session.
