CDRDAO Description

CDRDAO is Disk-At-Once Recording of Audio CD-Rs. Cdrdao records audio or data CD-Rs in disk-at-once (DAO) mode based on a textual description of the CD contents (toc-file).Recording in disk-at-once mode writes the complete disc, i.e. lead-in, one or more tracks and lead-out, in a single step. The commonly used track-at-once (TAO) mode writes each track independently which requires link blocks between two tracks.Older CD-recorder models forced a two second pause (pre-gap) between two tracks whereas newer models allow adjusting of the pause length in TAO mode reducing the number of link blocks to a minimal amount.However, with TAO it is generally not possible to define the data that is written in pre-gaps. But exactly this feature makes audio CD recording interesting, e.g. by creating hidden bonus tracks or track intros in pre-gaps like it is common habit on commercial CDs.Finally, DAO recording is the only way to write data to the unused R-W sub-channels for e.g. CD-G or CD-TEXT. Here are some key features of "CDRDAO":· Full control over length and contents of pre-gaps (pause areas between tracks). Pre-gaps may be completely omitted, e.g. for dividing live recordings into tracks.· Control over sub-channel data like:· catalog number· copy, pre-emphasis, 2-/4-channel flags· ISRC code· index marks· Support for exact audio, data and mixed mode CD copying.· Support for R-W sub-channel writing.· Tracks may be composed of different audio files supporting non destructive cut.· Accepts WAVE and raw audio files.· CD-TEXT reading and writing with drives that support it.· CDDB access to automatically create CD-TEXT data.· Support for on-the-fly copying.What's New in This Release:· Added device locking for win32 (Giuseppe Corbelli)· Man page cleanup (Andrew Suffield)GCDMaster changes:· Fixed GCC 4.1 compilation issues· Fixed hang when inserting WAV file What's New in This Release: · Many bugs and compilation problems were fixed, including an old off-by-one pregap computation issue. · A number of native SCSI backends were added. · The native Linux SCSI backend should be used by default over libscg. · A simple Preferences dialog was added to gcdmaster.
