GNU xorriso - Summary

This software is part of the GNU Project.

xorriso is a program which copies file objects from POSIX compliant filesystems into Rock Ridge enhanced ISO 9660 filesystems and allows session-wise manipulation of such filesystems. It can load the management information of existing ISO images and it writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects.
Vice versa xorriso is able to copy file objects out of ISO 9660 filesystems.

The filesystem manipulation capabilities surpass those of mkisofs. xorriso is especially suitable for backups, because of its high fidelity of file attribute recording and its incremental update sessions.
Supported optical media on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, and OpenSolaris are:
CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, BD-R, BD-RE.

Commands -as mkisofs and -as cdrecord provide xorriso's ISO 9660 and multi-session capabilities via options that are compatible with cdrtools resp. cdrkit.

GNU xorriso is a static compilation of libburn, libisofs, libisoburn, and xorriso, contributed to the GNU operating system under GPLv3+ and promised to be permanently supported by libburnia-project.org.
