cdrskin 1.5.6 : limited cdrecord compatibility wrapper for libburn Usage: cdrskin [options|source_addresses] Burns preformatted data to CD or DVD via libburn. For the cdrecord compatible options which control the work of blanking and burning see output of option -help rather than --help. Non-cdrecord options: --abort_handler do not leave the drive in busy state --adjust_speed_to_drive set only speeds offered by drive and media --allow_emulated_drives dev=stdio: on file objects --allow_setuid disable setuid warning (setuid is insecure !) --allow_untested_media enable implemented untested media types --any_track allow source_addresses to match '^-.' or '=' assert_write_lba= abort if not next write address == lba cd_start_tno= set number of first track in CD SAO session --cdtext_dummy show CD-TEXT pack array instead of writing CD cdtext_to_textfile= extract CD-TEXT from CD to disk file cdtext_to_v07t= report CD-TEXT from CD to file or stdout --cdtext_verbose show CD-TEXT pack array before writing CD direct_write_amount= write random access to media like DVD+RW --demand_a_drive exit !=0 on bus scans with empty result --devices list accessible devices (tells /dev/...) --device_links list accessible devices by (udev) links dev_translation= set input address alias e.g.: dev_translation=+ATA:1,0,0+/dev/sg1 --drive_abort_on_busy abort process if busy drive is found (might be triggered by a busy hard disk) --drive_blocking try to wait for busy drive to become free (might be stalled by a busy hard disk) --drive_f_setlk obtain exclusive lock via fcntl. --drive_not_exclusive combined not_o_excl and not_f_setlk. --drive_not_f_setlk do not obtain exclusive lock via fcntl. --drive_not_o_excl do not ask kernel to prevent opening busy drives. Effect is kernel dependent. drive_scsi_dev_family= select Linux device file family to be used for (pseudo-)SCSI. --drive_scsi_exclusive try to exclusively reserve device files /dev/srN, /dev/scdM, /dev/stK of drive. dvd_obs="default"|number set number of bytes per DVD/BD write: 32k or 64k extract_audio_to= Copy all tracks of an audio CD as separate .WAV files /track.wav to hard disk extract_basename= Compose track files as /.wav --extract_dap Enable flaw obscuring mechanisms for audio reading extract_tracks= Restrict extract_audio_to= to list of tracks. fallback_program= use external program for exotic CD jobs. --fifo_disable disable fifo despite any fs=... --fifo_per_track use a separate fifo for each track fifo_start_at= do not wait for full fifo but start burning as soon as the given number of bytes is read --fill_up_media cause the last track to have maximum size --four_channel indicate that audio tracks have 4 channels grab_drive_and_wait= grab drive, wait given number of seconds, release drive, and do normal work --grow_overwriteable_iso emulate multi-session on media like DVD+RW --ignore_signals try to ignore any signals rather than to abort input_sheet_v07t= read a Sony CD-TEXT definition file --list_formats list format descriptors for loaded media. --list_ignored_options list all ignored cdrecord options. --list_speeds list speed descriptors for loaded media. --list_features list SCSI features reported by the drive --long_toc print overview of media content modesty_on_drive= no writing into full drive buffer --no_abort_handler exit even if the drive is in busy state --no_blank_appendable refuse to blank appendable CD-RW --no_convert_fs_adr only literal translations of dev= --no_load do not try to load the drive tray --no_rc as first argument: do not read startup files --obs_pad pad DVD DAO to full 16 or 32 blocks --bdr_obs_exempt possibly exempt BD-R from padding to full 64k --old_pseudo_scsi_adr use and report literal Bus,Target,Lun rather than real SCSI and pseudo ATA. --pacifier_with_newline do not overwrite pacifier line by next one. --prodvd_cli_compatible react on some DVD types more like cdrecord-ProDVD with blank= and -multi sao_postgap="off"|number defines whether the next track will get a post-gap and how many sectors it shall have sao_pregap="off"|number defines whether the next track will get a pre-gap and how many sectors it shall have --single_track accept only last argument as source_address stream_recording="on"|"off"|number "on" requests to prefer speed over write error management. A number prevents this with byte addresses below that number. stdio_sync="default"|"off"|number set number of bytes after which to force output to drives with prefix "stdio:". tao_to_sao_tsize= use num as fixed track size if in a non-TAO mode track data are read from "-" and no tsize= was specified. --tell_media_space print maximum number of writeable data blocks textfile_to_v07t=file_path print CD-TEXT file in Sony format and exit. --two_channel indicate that audio tracks have 2 channels use_immed_bit=on|off|default real control over SCSI Immed bit write_start_address= write to given byte address (DVD+RW) --xa1-ignore with -xa1 do not strip 8 byte headers -xamix DO NOT USE (Dummy announcement to make K3B use -xa) Preconfigured arguments are read from the following startup files if they exist and are readable. The sequence is as listed here: /etc/default/cdrskin /etc/opt/cdrskin/rc /etc/cdrskin/cdrskin.conf $HOME/.cdrskinrc Each file line is a single argument. No whitespace. By default any argument that does not match grep '^-.' or '=' is used as track source. If it is "-" then stdin is used. cdrskin : http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin_eng.html mailto:scdbackup@gmx.net (Thomas Schmitt) libburn : http://libburnia-project.org cdrecord : ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ My respect to the authors of cdrecord and libburn. scdbackup: http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/main_eng.html
