XDuplicatorBeta 5

Burning discs and creating disc images are activities that have become quite common over the years and there are numerous software solutions that have been developed in order to take care of such tasks.Some of the applications that are appreciated by users worldwide are often available only as command-line tools and for this reason many independent developers often put together graphical interfaces to make those utilities accessible to less experienced users as well.Xduplicator fits quite well in this category as it relies on the presence of Cdrdao, which is a recording engine especially designed for use with CDs. The multi-tabbed GUI provides quick access to all the features of the application, which are neatly ordered each in its corresponding module.The read, write and copy capabilities also have some configurable parameters that users can adjust in order to carry out some extra actions. Thus, when it comes to reading the data from disc, it is possible to save the TOC and BIN files while activating options like 'RAW read' or 'Create TOC only'.The CDDB support is a welcomed feature and users can add or remove entries to the list from the dedicated tab inside Xduplicator. There are some TOC tools built-in this program, so the users will be able to select and covert TOC files into CUE format or into MP3 audio format, with a bitrate that can reach up to 320 kbps.With regard to the configuration of Xduplicator, this can be completed from the 'Settings' area of the utility, where the reader and writer units can be selected and a handful of additional options activated.
