xorriso
xorriso creates, loads, manipulates, and writes ISO 9660 filesystem images with Rock Ridge extensions. It can load the management information of existing ISO images, and it writes the session results to optical media or to filesystem objects. This is the standalone version that incorporates the libraries of libburnia-project.org and thus depends only on Linux 2.4 (or later), libc, and libpthread. No mkisofs and no CD/DVD/BD burn program are needed.

Recent releases
- 29 Jun 2009 08:11
Changes: This release can record and restore hard link relations of files. Performance of data reading has been improved. The test expression of option -find now supports logical operators. Some rarely occurring bugs have been fixed.
- 20 Apr 2009 08:09
Changes: This release makes use of the new libisofs capability to perform content filtering of data files. Builtin filters allow compression to the gzip and zisofs formats. External filter processes allow arbitrary data conversions like encryption.
- 17 Mar 2009 12:21
Changes: A new "data" stream recording mode for BD media writes superblock and directory trees slowly and accelerates to full nominal speed for file content data. xorriso can now be compiled on systems other than Linux or FreeBSD. One will eventually need an external burn program on those systems.
- 02 Mar 2009 15:05
Changes: xorriso now can record ACLs and Extended Attributes in its ISO images. Current operating systems will ignore them, but xorriso is able to restore them when copying files from the ISO image to the local filesystem.
- 07 Jan 2009 21:31
Changes: Regrettably, 0.3.2.pl00 included a bug in libburn regarding finalization of BD-R media. This has been fixed.
