NEW features of cdrtools-2.01a15:

Please have a look at the German open Source Center BerliOS at www.berlios.de
BerliOS will continue to support free hosting of cryptography projects even
when US laws change and don't allow to host cryptography projects in the USA.
Also look at sourcewell.berlios.de, the first Open Source announcement service
that itself is implemented as Open Source project.

For the 'Slottable Source Plugin Module' SSPM Features read README.SSPM

NOTICE: for supporting the CW-7501 and for supporting SAO/DAO with the
        Sony CDU-920, Sony CDU-924, Sony CDU-948, the driver interface has
        been modified.  This change did affect more than 3000 lines of code.
        The new driver interface again is more simple and more extendable than
        the old one, but the change may affect -dummy and -multi writing for
        any other drive. Please test if the change did not introduce new bugs.

        Also the change on the packet writing structures may affect packet writing.

        The changes for the DVD+ drive/media recognition may affect drive or
        media type recognition for any other drive.

        The changes for DVD+RW & DVD+R media support may cause cdrecod to fail 
        in other circumstances.

        With cdrecord-2.01a13, the track parsing has been completely rearranged
        in order to support new features in the future. This causes a high risk
        for bugs.

        With cdrecord-2.01a14, CUE Sheet handling has been introduced and
        1200 lines of new code has been integrated.

        Please test.

All:

-       Catch the case where somebody tries to compile on Solaris with
        /usr/ucb in PATH before /opt/SUNWspro/bin and when calling 'cc'
        results in:
                /usr/ucb/cc:  language optional software package not installed

Libedc (Optimized by J�rg Schilling, originated by Heiko Ei�feldt [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

Libscg:

-       Fixed another printf buffer vulnerability in scsi-remote.c

-       New version of scsi-amigaos.c from Thomas Langer

Rscsi:

Cdrecord:

-       Modified the notes close to the Copyright printing code in cdrecord.c
        to make clear that this note is not a deviation from the GPL but just
        a memorandum on how to understand the GPL.

-       Fixed a bug in file descriptor handling that caused cdrecord not
        to continue at offset xxx in the file after a new track did start.

-       Added a forgotten feature in the CUE Sheet parser so it will now know that
        WAVE files use swapped (intel) byte order.

-       Restructured the main program of cdrecord so that cdrecord overall
        behaves smilar to before when cue sheets are used.
        e.g. cdrecord -eject cuefile=xxx did only eject the disk instead of
        first writing and then ejecting.

-       Added some hints to the man page to make speed= handling clearer

-       Fixed some typos in the man page

-       Added the -format option to the man page

-       CD-Text handling reworked:

        CD-Text from textfile= or from CUE CDTEXTFILE wins over CD-Text
        from *.inf files and over CUE SONGRITER.

-       CD-Text from CUE file (either CDTEXTFILE or SONGRITER) now needs
        -text in addition in order to be not ignored.

-       Fixed a bug in the recognition for cdda2wav | cdrecord *.inf
        that caused a message
                WARNING: Stdin is connected to a terminal.
        if not writing from a pipe.

TODO:
        -       read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
                or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer for this task:
                Peter Berendi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> announced that he likes
                to be the volounteer for this task.

                Unfortunately, I did no hear again from him, but I got
                a proposal from
                "Krisztian Gede" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
                who also likes to do the job.

                Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation
                between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660
                names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are
                untranslated with respect to the original files on the
                master (UNIX) filesystem.

        -       add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.
                This may not be needed if we ise VCDimager and recent
                cdrecord versions.


CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:

To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
For more information read README.win32

The files are located on:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha ...

NOTE:   These tar archives are 100% ansi compatible. Solaris 2.x tar and GNU
        tar may get some minor trouble.

WARNING: Do not use 'mc' to extract the tar file!
        All mc versions before 4.0.14 cannot extract symbolic links correctly.

WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
        Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
