Libburnia

Libburnia is the name of a project to develop various pieces of disk recording software.

• libisofs is the library to create or modify ISO 9660 disk images.
• libburn is the underlying programming library. It is used by xorriso, cdrskin and 3rd party disk recording applications can also use this library directly.
• libisoburn is an add-on to libburn and libisofs which coordinates both and also allows to grow ISO 9660 filesystem images on multi-session and overwriteable media.
• xorriso is a CLI application that creates, loads, manipulates and writes ISO 9660 filesystem images with Rock Ridge extensions. This package is part of the GNU Project.
• xorrisofs creates an ISO9660+Rock Ridge disc images from local files, optionally with a Joliet directory tree.
• xorrecord writes disc images to physical discs.
• cdrskin is the end-user application of libburnia. It is CLI-only and its syntax is mostly identical to cdrecord to act as a drop-in replacement for existing front-ends.[http://scdbackup.sourceforge.net/README_cdrskin cdrskin README file]

Xorriso stands for X/Open, Rock Ridge ISO and is the main command-line tool included with libburnia. It allows both generation and (to some extent) update of image files as well as burning images to the disk.

xorriso 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.{{Cite web|url=https://www.gnu.org/software/xorriso/|title = GNU xorriso - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation}}

It provides a command-line interface for single operations as well as GNU Readline and Dialog-based interfaces.

• The underlying libburn library is used directly as sole recording back-end for Xfce’s graphical Xfburn application[http://www.xfce.org/projects/xfburn Xfburn website] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120220123040/http://www.xfce.org/projects/xfburn |date=2012-02-20 }} which is included in the default installation of Xubuntu since version 10.10.[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/MaverickMeerkat/Final Xubuntu 10.10 release information] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110603234222/https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/MaverickMeerkat/Final |date=2011-06-03 }}
• GNOME's default disk recording application, Brasero, can use libburn directly without relying on cdrecord compatibility of cdrskin.[http://projects.gnome.org/brasero/ Brasero website]
• FlBurn is a FLTK application that uses libburn directly.[http://flburn.sf.net/ FlBurn website]
• cdrskin is similar to cdrecord and wodim, and can be used in place of the aforementioned tool in GUI front-ends such as K3b.{{Cite web|url=https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto|title=K3b - Community Help Wiki}}

The first public release (libburn-0.2.2) was in September 2006.

The current stable version is 1.5.4, which was released on January 30, 2021.
