# Wiretap Backwards Compatibility

You can view and write back to projects created in any current Visual Effects and Finishing application. However, if a project was created using an earlier version of the software, Lustre has read-only access to it. Similar considerations apply to the Wiretap server. That is, Lustre has read/write access to media via any current Wiretap server. Earlier Wiretap servers may provide read-only access. The version of the Wiretap server is shown in the Lustre browser.
