'''cdrdao''' is a command-line tool used for reading and writing [[CD]] data.

cdrdao records audio or data CD-Rs in disc-at-once mode based on a textual description of the CD contents known as a TOC file. cdrdao runs from command line and has no graphical user interface, except for third-party ones such as [[K3b]] (Linux), Gcdmaster (Linux) or XDuplicator (Windows).

cdrdao 1.1.9 is included with some releases of [[Exact Audio Copy]] 1.3, however versions 1.2.0 and earlier have issues reading certain [[CD-Text]] values, so may not always work.

==Command line usage==
<pre style="display:table;">
Usage: cdrdao <command> [options] [toc-file]
command:
show-toc - prints out toc and exits
toc-info - prints out short toc-file summary
toc-size - prints total number of blocks for toc
read-toc - create toc file from audio CD
read-cd - create toc and rip audio data from CD
read-cddb - contact CDDB server and add data as CD-TEXT to toc-file
show-data - prints out audio data and exits
read-test - reads all audio files and exits
disk-info - shows information about inserted medium

Try 'cdrdao <command> -h' to get a list of available options
</pre>

==TOC file==
Rather than a [[cue sheet]], cdrdao saves disc information as a {{code|.toc}} file, which uses a different layout from a cue sheet:

<pre style="display: inline-table;">CD_DA

CD_TEXT {
LANGUAGE_MAP {
0: 9
}
LANGUAGE 0 {
TITLE "Love This Giant"
PERFORMER "David Byrne & St.Vincent"
DISC_ID "CAD3231CD"
RESERVED4 "Mastered using SADiE v5.6.2"
SIZE_INFO { 0, 1, 12, 0, 19, 27, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4, 0, 3, 53, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0, 9, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}
}
}

}
}
FILE "data.wav" 03:49:72 03:07:07</pre>

cdrdao can, however, utilize cue sheets when burning discs, should a TOC file not be available, although {{code|cue2toc}} can convert cue sheets into the TOC format. Additionally, TOC files can be converted to cue sheets using {{code|toc2cue}}.
