| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 1 Libburn is a library by which preformatted data get onto optical media: |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 2 CD, DVD, BD (Blu-Ray). |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 3 On Linux it uses either /dev/sgN (on kernel 2.4 with ide-scsi, or |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 4 optional with concurrent operation of multiple drives) or /dev/srM |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 5 (kernel 2.6 and newer), /dev/hdX ( on kernel 2.6). |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 6 |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 7 Libburn also offers a facility for reading data blocks from its drives |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 8 without using the normal block device i/o, which has its advantages and |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 9 disadvantages. It seems appropriate, nevertheless, to do writing and |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 10 reading via the same channel. |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 11 On several Linux systems, the block device driver needs reloading of the |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 12 drive tray in order to make available freshly written data. |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 13 The libburn read function does not need such a reload. |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 14 |
| Hans-G?nter@24721 | 15 Audio CD can be written and read. |
