NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a73:
Cdrecord:
- The *.inf file parser now supports a new tag "Track=" that
is intended to carry the absolute track number from the original disk.
Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by J
- Cdda2wav now permits to use "max" for the endtrack number. This
allows to specify e.g. -t2+max for a list of tracks from track #2
to the last audio track on the disk.
- New option -cuefile allows to tell cdda2wav to create a CDRWIN CUE
file. This currently only works together with wither -tall, or with
-t0+max or -t1+max.
Note that due to a misconception in the CDRWIN CUE file definition,
it is impossible to create 100% correct CD-audio copy by 100%
following the CDRWIN CUE file definition and having separate audio
files for each track at the same time. For this reason, it is currently
impossible to create CDRWIN CUE files while using cdda2wav -B.
- Cdda2wav now only writes a binary *.cdtext file in case that this
file would contain more data than a header that tells that there
is no further content.
- Cdda2wav no longer removes the Index0 entry from a longer Index list
if Index0 is -1.
- Cdda2wav now automatically scans for hidden audio tracks. This is a
complex task as there are drives that do not allow to read the
hidden data before track 1.
- New option -no-hidden-track allows to prevent cdda2wav from scanning
for a hidden audio track.
- Cdda2wav now writes the new tag "Track=" into the *.inf files that
is intended to carry the absolute track number from the original disk.
- A shortcut for paraopts=sectors-per-track-1,retries=200 was introduced.
The name of the shortcut is "proof", so just use "paraopts=proof" for
selecting the most stringent paranoia mode.
- Cdda2wav now automatically selects paranoia mode in case that the
paraopts= option was used.
- Cdda2wav now again works in suid root mode on Solaris 11. It seems that
the development versions from Solaris 11 did change the behavior with
fine grained privileges in a way that was incompatible with the way
cdda2wav did try to handle both suid root and fine grained privileges.
Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by J
- The man page for mkisofs was enhanced in order to better mention
that mkisofs always writes ISO-9660 and that other file systems are
thus always added as a hybrid file system.
NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a74:
Cdrecord:
- Cdrecord now supports to copy CDs with hidden track if there are *.inf files
created by cdda2wav. In order to copy a CD with hidden Track with optimal
quality, call:
cdda2wav -vall -B -paranoia paraports=proof cddb=0
cdrecord -v -sao -useinfo -text *.wav
- cdwrite@lists.debian.org removed from man page

Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by J
- A forgotten debug message from implementing support for hidden tracks
has been removed.
- Fixed a small bug that made cdda2wav with hidden track support not fully
compatible to earlier versions. In case that only one track is to be extracted,
this is again always track #1 regsrdless whether the CD has a hidden track.
- Fixed a bug with CDRWIN CUE file support. Cdda2wav used the tag "WAV" instead
of "WAVE" for the data type specifier in the FILE tag.

Iso9660 Analyzer Tool is a free utility tool for detecting the
structure of DVD/CD-ROM image file formats; the tool supports many
CD/DVD-ROM data image file formats.
Iso9660 Analyzer Tool provides the conversion of any image format
to an UDF/ISO for easy mounting in your favorite Operating System.
The tool also permits the creation of TOC or CUE file descriptor
to burn the image easily with your favorite burner on your favorite
Operating System. If the image is not compliant with TOC or CUE,
it should be converted to UDF/ISO format which can be mounted upon
any Operating System.
If the Operating System does not support image of DVD/CD-ROM, then
creating the TOC file descriptor is a good option burn 1:1 original
image. Iso9960 Analyzer Tool provides option to create TOC file
descriptor. Note some application does not support TOC descriptor.
Similarly, if the Operating System does not support image of
DVD/CD-ROM, then creating the CUE file descriptor is also a good
option. Iso9960 Analyzer Tool provides option to create CUE file
descriptor. Note the creation of CUE might not work with protected
image.
2.01.01alpha72:
Cdrecord:
- The CDRWIN cue sheet parser has been enhanced to give better error messages:
- There are now hints on what is missing in the CUE file
- The error message now also contains the column where the problem was detected
- Allow cdrecord to compile again on a pre-C99 compiler (there was a variable delaration
past a statement in a function.
- A description for the *.inf file fomat was added to the cdrecord man page
- New (previously missing) CD-Text tags have been added to auinfo.c (*.inf file parser):
Albumsongwriter=
Albumcomposer=
Albumarranger=
Albummessage=
Albumclosed_info=
Note that these tags do not appear in the CDDB database.
Cdda2wav (Maintained/enhanced by J
- New arg "all" to -t option.
cdda2wav -B extracts all audio tacks into separate files
cdda2wav -tall extracts all audio tacks into a single files
- cdda2wav now by default writes a file "xxx.cdtext" with raw binary
CD-Text data in case cdda2wav was told to retrieve CD-Text.
- A new option -no-textfile allows to disable the creation of the file "audio.cdtext"
This version of cdda2wav creates a file "audio.cdtext" or similar (depending on
the set up file name base) in case that there is CD-Text on the medium and that
the drives supports to read the CD-Text data with MMC SCSI commands.
- Fixed a bug in cdda2wav that caused cdda2wav to set up the file name base too late.
This resultes in the files "audio.cdindex" and "audio.cddb" alwas to have this name
while the *.inf files use the name base from the cdda2wav arguments. Now all
files created by cdda2wav honor the file name base.
- Cdda2wav by default fills empty track specific CD-Text data with the Disk global
value (if present). A new option -no-textdefaults allows to disable this fallback
and leaves the related fields empty if they are empty on the mester CD.
- Fixed a problem with cdda2wav -interactive (used by GNOME GSTREAMER CD-DAE plugin)
that could cause cdda2wav to dump core in case that there is a data
session past the last audio track.
- New (previously missing) CD-Text tags have been added to the *.inf files:
Albumsongwriter=
Songwriter=
Albumcomposer=
Composer=
Albumarranger=
Arranger=
Albummessage=
Message=
Albumclosed_info=
Closed_info=
Note that these tags do not appear in the CDDB database.
Mkisofs (Maintained/enhanced by J
- Fixed a bug with file descriptor handling in mkisofs/apple.c
2.01.01a71:
All:
- include/schily/stat.h now supports nonosecond timestamps in struct stat on AIX.
- New autoconf test for nanosecond time stamps on AIX.
- conf/mkdir.sh
- conf/mkdep-aix.sh was changed to avoid warnings for #pragma weak a = b
as the IBM C-compiler calls a non "#pragma weak" cpp when called with -E
Cdrecord:
- Cdrecord now is able to use -isosize even in case that the image data
is read from stdin. This makes it easier to use "mkisofs | cdrecord".
