Library for reading, mastering and writing optical discs
Description
Libburn is a library by which preformatted data get onto optical media: CD, DVD and BD (Blu-Ray).
It also offers a facility for reading data blocks from its drives without using the normal block
device I/O, which has advantages and disadvantages. It seems appropriate, nevertheless,
to do writing and reading via same channel. On several Linux systems, the block device driver needs
reloading of the drive tray in order to make available freshly written data. The libburn read function
does not need such a reload. The code of libburn is independent of cdrecord.
