Announcing cdrskin-0.3.8

["Thomas Schmitt" <scdbackup@gmx.net>]

Hi,

be invited to try the new version 0.3.8 of my program cdrskin,
a burn backend for CD and DVD.
It marks the first anniversary of the revived development of libburn.


System requirements:
  Linux with kernel 2.4 or 2.6.

Changes:
* Now able to cope with the peculiarities of Linux 2.4 USB
* Refusal to perform -dummy runs on media which cannot simulate burning
* New option modesty_on_drive= may help with hda -> hdb burns
* New option minbuf= , cdrecord compatible frontend of modesty_on_drive=
* New option --adjust_speed_to_drive
* Precautions against using the burner drive as track source

For more info, see http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin_eng.html


Download:

cdrskin is part of the libburn-0.3.8 SVN tag:
  http://libburnia-svn.pykix.org/libburn/tags/ZeroThreeEight
(needs autotools >= 1.7 to apply command ./bootstrap)

cdrskin is part of the libburn-0.3.8 release tarball:
  http://libburnia-download.pykix.org/releases/libburn-0.3.8.tar.gz
(needs only vanilla tools for ./configure ; make)

There are also a cdrskin release tarball (containing libburn):
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin-0.3.8.pl00.tar.gz
and single binaries in tar wrappers:
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin_0.3.8.pl00-x86-suse9_0.tar.gz
  http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/cdrskin_0.3.8.pl00-x86-suse9_0-static.tar.gz
The latter is supposed to run on most systems with kernel 2.4 or 2.6.

scdbackup.sourceforge.net is mirrored at scdbackup.webframe.org .
