The libcdio package contains a library which encapsulates CD-ROM
|
|
reading and control. Applications wishing to be oblivious of the OS-
|
|
and device-dependant properties of a CD-ROM can use this library.
|
|
|
|
Also included is a library for working with ISO-9660 filesystems.
|
|
|
|
Some support for disk image types like BIN/CUE and NRG is available,
|
|
so applications that use this library also have the ability to read
|
|
disc images as though they were CD's.
|
|
|
|
Immediate of the library in this package are the Video CD authoring
|
|
and ripping tools VCDImager (http://vcdimager.org), a
|
|
navigation-capable Video CD plugin and CD-DA plugins for the media
|
|
players xine (http://xinehq.de) and videolan's vlc
|
|
(http://videolan.org).
|
|
|
|
Also include in the libcdio package is a utility program cd-info which
|
|
displays CD information: number of tracks, CD-format and if possible
|
|
basic information about the format. If libcddb
|
|
(http://libcdddb.sourceforge.net) is available, the cd-info program
|
|
will display CDDB matches on CD-DA discs. And if a new enough version
|
|
of libvcdinfo is available (from the vcdimager project), then cd-info
|
|
shows basic VCD information.
|
|
|
|
Other utility programs in the libcdio package are cd-read, for
|
|
performing low-level block reading of a CD or CD image, iso-info for
|
|
displaying ISO-9660 information from an ISO-9660 image, and iso-read
|
|
for extracting files from an ISO-9660 image.
