Overview
BurnerOnFire is multi-threaded program that can write same content (iso files for now) to multiple CD/DVD burners simultaneously. It is developed and tested only on Debian for now.
It uses D-Bus/HAL specification to interact with hardware. It spawns subprocesses that wrap around command line program Wodim. BurnerOnFire has both CLI and GUI(GTK+) interfaces.
This project was initially developed for Club K4 by kiberpipa.org folks.
Note
BurnerOnFire passes arguments forward to Wodim, eg.: burneronfire -- -dummy simulates writing.
First of all, you need to install python dbus bindings and python GTK2 bindings, on Ubuntu:
$ sudo aptitude install python-gtk2
$ sudo aptitude install python-dbus
You are almost finished, run:
$ wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz#md5=3864c01d9c719c8924c455714492295e
$ tar xf setuptools-0.6c9.tar.gz
$ cd setuptools-0.6c9
$ sudo python setup.py install
$ sudo easy_install burneronfire
$ burneronfire
Note
If you receive “Operation not permitted”, it means that current user does not have permissions to lock memory. This does not affect functionality of burning. To avoid such troubles, run BurnerOnFire with sudo.
If BurnerOnFire is invoked with --filename or -f parameter, CLI interface is used:
$ burneronfire --help
Usage: burneronfire -s [write speed] -f [filename/path to filename] -m [burnmode]
If no filename is given, GUI will start.
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f FILENAME, --filename=FILENAME specify which file to burn
-s BURNSPEED, --speed=BURNSPEED specify burning speed (default is 16)
-m BURNMODE, --mode=BURNMODE provide write mode (defaults to DAO)
-l LIMIT, --limit=LIMIT number of discs to burn (defaults to 0, which means unlimited)
Logging is used while burning, stdout/stderr are written to files in current directory:
$ burneronfire -f test.iso
