BiaDVDBurn

Description

BiaDVDBurn is a simple graphical front-end to growisofs written in Python and GTK. While not providing the full interface to genisoimage, this tool simply encapsulates the functionality to burn a pre-mastered ISO image to a DVD.

The reason I created this tool is because I often find the more sophisticated GUIs trying to be too smart and fail when the back-end tool works fine when invoked from the command line. This tool is dumb enough just to invoke growisofs directly and just acts as a conduit for the command line switches acting more a convenience tool than a full-featured GUI.
