GNU CD Input and Control Library 0.78.2

GNU CD Input and Control Library (libcdio) encapsulates CD-ROM reading and control. The libcdio package contains a library which encapsulates CD-ROM reading and control. Applications wishing to be oblivious of the OS- and device-dependent properties of a CD-ROM can use this library. Some support for on-disk CD-image types like CDRWINs BIN/CUE format, cdrdaos TOC format, and Neros NRG format is available. Therefore, applications that use this library also have the ability to read on-disk CD images as though they were CDs. A library for working with ISO-9660 filesystems (libiso9660) is included. A generic interface for issuing MMC (multimedia commands) is also part of the libcdio library. The cdparanoia library and cdparanoia command are included making this the only single-source cdparanoia that works on FreeBSD, cygwin, Solaris, BSDI as well as GNU/Linux. Some uses of the library: - Video CD authoring and ripping tools VCDImager - VCD and/or CD-DA plugins for media players: xine videolans vlc. gmerlin. mplayerxp. - kiso, a KDE GUI for creating, extracting and editing ISO 9660 images - a Samba vfs module that that allows exporting a CD without mounting it Utility programs in the libcdio package are: cd-info a program which displays CD information: number of tracks, CD-format and if possible basic information about the format. If libcddb is available, the cd-info program will display CDDB matches on CD-DA discs. And if a new enough version of libvcdinfo is available (from the vcdimager project), then cd-info shows basic VCD information. cd-drive a program which decribes CD-ROM/DVD drive characteristics cd-paranoia a program for extracting audio from a CD in a jitter- and error-tolerant way. cd-read a program for performing low-level block reading of a CD or CD image cdda-player a curses program using the audio controls to play a CD-DA through the audio output port. iso-info a program for displaying ISO-9660 information from an ISO-9660 image iso-read a program for extracting files from an ISO-9660 image. Whats New in This Release: - A minor compilation problem was fixed..
