  • Display optical drives available to `wodim`:
    wodim --devices
  • Record ("burn") an audio-only disc:
    wodim dev=/dev/optical_drive -audio track*.cdaudio
  • Burn a file to a disc, ejecting the disc once done (some recorders require this):
    wodim -eject dev=/dev/optical_drive -data file.iso
  • Burn a file to the disc in an optical drive, potentially writing to multiple discs in succession:
    wodim -tao dev=/dev/optical_drive -data file.iso
