Disc Burning Quick Assist
You easily burn toast, but you can't figure out how to burn a disc. Whether you want to have a tangible copy of your GarageBand masterpiece, back up your files, or share your epic movie-making mastery with couch potatoes around the world (or at least your non-critical friends and family), creating a CD or DVD of your work is a common rite of passage in every Mac user's life.But if burning a disc conjures up images of flaming rounds of plastic, this handy guide will show you how to create your own CDs and DVDs and help you troubleshoot any issues that may occur. All you need is a disc drive that can record the type of discs you want to burn.Apple Combo Drives can burn information on CD-R or CD-RW (rewritable) discs. Apple SuperDrives can burn data to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW discs—some of the latest SuperDrives may also burn to DVD+R, DVD+RW, and DVD+R DL discs (see your product manual for specifics). Be sure that you only purchase recordable discs that work with your disc drive. For information about your particular disc drive, consult your Apple or third-party product manual.

Ultra 10 - Copying Files From Disc After Booting Up With Recovery Disc?

Hello, I'm still learning unix and I have what is probably a simple question but I can't seem to find the question to. I have an Ultra 10 Sparc Server running solaris 8 and the drive may have crashed (I hope not). Currently, it appears some files in the /etc folder are missing. I have a backup... (1 Reply)

cdde

cdde(1) 																   cdde(1)

NAME

       cdde - Compact Disc Detect & Execute

SYNOPSIS

       cdde [-c filename] [-rbvVh]

DESCRIPTION

       cdde is a program that detects when a cdrom drive on your system has had a disc inserted.

       When it finds a disc inserted in the drive it will attempt to determine the type of the disc, and execute a specified command.

       This  means  you  can  put in a dvd and your favorite dvd software will start, or put in a data cd and it will be automatically mounted for
       you.

       Right now cdde can detect the following types of discs:
	       * audio cd
	       * data cd
	       * dvd
	       * mixed audio/data cd
	       * vcd
	       * svcd
	       * blank cdr/dvdr

       For now the dvd checking is just a bit of magic that checks to see if there's a "video_ts" directory on the disc. Same  goes  for  the  vcd
       checking: it just looks for a "vcd" directory on the disc.

       cdde reads its configuration from "~/.cdde.xml" unless otherwise specified on the command line.

OPTIONS

       -r, --run
	      Run commands on disc already in drive when is started.

       -b, --batch
	      Batch mode: check all drives once then exit. (implies -r)

       -c, --config <filename>
	      Use the config file <filename>. (Default is ~/.cdde.xml)

       -v, --verbose
	      Print out lots of information.

       -V, --version
	      Print out version information.

       -h, --help
	      Print Display this help and exit.

FILES

       ~/.cdde.xml
