This is not an independant fork of cdrtools! It is rather an _unmaintained_ snapshot that uses an add on which most likely has been created by reverse engineering cdrecord-ProDVD. Give me a better explanagtion why the hell the "patch" this beast is related on appeard about a week after I announced my first test binary and about two weeks after I put the binary on the server. Keeping in mind that is is a 100 line patch and that the first binary test version of cdrecord-ProDVD did not come with -V disabled... In addition note that the "author" removed the tested and working make file system and replaced it by some piece of junk that works on Linux only by accident - it does not work on other OS! It seems that this person did try to write own autoconf code from what he did understand. Unfortunately it seems that he did not understand much :-( Look at the web page and judge yourself. The first thing that comes into mind is the 'pay' button. Writing portable code like cdrecord and make it work with all drives on the market is a hard job. The person who claims that he is the author of this project is somebody who is falsely taking all the credit but does not put own effort in development.
