What InfraRecorder is

InfraRecorder is a free CD/DVD burning program for Microsoft Windows. It creates data, audio, and mixed-mode projects and can record them to physical discs or disc images, including ISO and BIN/CUE. It can copy discs directly or through a temporary image, blank rewritable discs using four methods, and record to dual-layer DVDs. For multisession discs, it can import existing session data and add further sessions. Audio and data tracks can be saved as WAV, WMA, OGG, MP3, or ISO files. A Windows Explorer extension adds context-menu options for recording disc images or projects and opening or editing saved projects. The interface is described as customizable and Explorer-like, with drag-and-drop project handling and a separate Express application. UDF support is in alpha, and the software cannot create filesystems that use only UDF. The project is listed as Beta, and the latest-version file is ir053.exe (4.2 MB). The files page shows InfraRecorder files modified on 2012-09-01.
