CD writing software for linux
does anyone know of cd writing software for linux ?

depends on whether you have gnome or kde.
gnome: gtoaster xcdroast kde: k3b there are more but these are the ones i am familar with |
The backend:
mkisofs for creating iso image from files. cdrecord for writing those images. Frontends (all the packages that depend on cdrecord backend): Code:
toni@mario:~$ grep-available -F Depends 'cdrecord' -s Package,Description -d I nowadays don't use any frontend, but few words: -k3b, newer used, but many has said it is quite good. -xcdroast, easy, simple, used few times. The file selection system is somewhat weird, but otherwise it is ok. Pick one. |
K3B is the best cd burning front end for Linux in my opinion. You can create VCDs by adding mpeg videos to the project. Newer versions let you burn dvd's also, both data DVDs and video DVDs. To produce a video dvd, you need to use authoring software to produce the VIDEO_TS contents.
As ToniT explained, K3B is a graphical front end for other programs which do the low level writing, conversion, etc. There are other programs needed to fully utilized the K3B program. The K3B setup will search for them in the k3b-setup and will list the ones that you might want to install, such as the 'transcode' programs like tccat, tcprobe, et al. |
