How do you compile it?
Authored by: judgemental on May 21, '02 06:15:29PM

just type "make"

You'll get a bunch of file not founds, but it's ok.

The only crappy thing is, after mine was done compiling, you couldn't do make install, it leaves all the complied binaries under the build directories.

i.e.: cdrecord is under cdrtools-1.xx/cdrecord/OBJ/powerpc-darwin-cc
mkisofs is under cdrtools-1.xx/mkisofs/OBS/powerpc-darwin-cc

and so on.

If you have an iso you want to burn to cd, do somthing like this:

cd to the directory that cdrecord is in, or copy it to somewhere in your path

./cdrecord speed=8 -eject -v dev=IOCompactDiscServices file.iso

Of course, speed can be replaced with whatever speed your cdr is. Also if you have a DVD drive that writes, use IODVDServices in the dev option.

DVD question
Authored by: VEGx on May 21, '02 06:40:44PM
A silly question, maybe.

Can you write DVD format even if you don't have the DVD writer?

What I mean is, could you, say, burn a disk image with a small home video so that the DVD Player would think it is a DVD disk? So that you would not have to do all the "Select Video_TS folder..." every time? Or anything? Something? Anyone?
