Burn (burn until recorded now!) is a simple command-line program whose aim is to make it easy and quick to burn CDs/DVDs. Burn is able to create an Audio CD from .ogg, .mp3, and .wav files. It can copy CDs, create data CDs/DVDs, or create a CD/DVD from an existing ISO image. It features the ability to measure the size of the data to be burned, as well as the amount of space needed for temporary files. It warns if the target CD/DVD is too small, can perform simulation burns, and can eject the CD/DVD when done.

Recent releases


Changes: Many bugs have been closed. -x computes excluded data size and subtract it from the total size. msinfo cdrecord parsing has been fixed. Now an empty media check is done only with a CD-writing command. No check for -e and -h options. Audio file names are now escaped before cdrecord (this avoids problems with characters like " ' ".


Changes: This release adds a progress bar to show progress of audio conversion and ISO creation.


Changes: Now you can choose between native decoding functions and external decoders (mpg123, mpg321, ogg123, lame) to get WAV files from MP3 or Ogg. An eject option (-j --eject) was added. The simulate option for copy-cd was modified. An error is now raised if an option is put after another option which has variable arguments. The program now checks (and exits) if there is not enough free space on disk before checking if to_be_burned is bigger than the target medium's capacity. The -pad option was added to the cdrecord command line. eyeD3 now is used, and MP3Info is no longer used.


Changes: An eject option (-j --eject) was added. The simulate option was modified for copy-cd. The examples were improved. copy-cd now has a valid simulate option.
