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.
***************** Important news ****************************
For the 'Slottable Source Plugin Module' SSPM Features read README.SSPM
***************** Please Test *********************************
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:
- Trying to make the source get accepted by 'cstyle'.
Libparanoia (Ported by J�rg Schilling, originated by Monty [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Libedc (Optimized by J�rg Schilling, originated by Heiko Ei�feldt [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Libscg:
- Added a work around for a Solaris 9 x86 bug:
DKIOCINFO returns a max DMA size of 256 kB but only 68 kB will work.
Check max DMA size for a IDE disk to get a correct value....
For more information read the updated file README.solaris and the
new files README.solaris-x86-ata-DMA and README.solaris-x86-ATAPI-DMA
Rscsi:
Cdrecord:
- Small fix in auinfo.c to again allow compilation on K&R systems
- Typo in man page fixed
Cdda2wav (By Heiko Ei�feldt [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Readcd:
- New option fs=# (same syntax as with cdrecord fs=#) to allw the
user to set the maximum transfer size even in non-interactive mode.
This may help is the OS (as it has been the case for Solaris 9 x86)
reports a wrong maximum DMA size or there is a bug in libscg.
- Speed printing with meshpoints=# now is based on 1000 bytes == 1 kb
as documented in the SCSI standard.
- Stop reading if the OS replies with a DMA residual count != 0
- New option -factor will cause the read speed values to be printed
be based on the single speed of the current medium. This is only
possible if readcd is able to find out the current medium type.
Scgcheck:
Mkisofs (By J�rg Schilling and James Pearson [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
- man page corrected
- Moved Eltorito PVD before ISO-9660:1999 enhanced PCD to allow
bootable CD with ISO-9660:1999
- -sort file handling fixed: mkisofs now looks for SPACE/TAB whatever
comes last (as documented in the man page).
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.
