Why ImgBurn?

I want to store br-rips as .iso.

Everywhere it is recommended that you'd use ImgBurn, even with macOS.

I managed to run it through Wine.
(Using 32b-xp-mode.)

But,
Does anybody know, how the end result differs from making .cdr in Disk Utility and then

Code: Select all

hdiutil makehybrid -iso -joliet -o ~/Desktop/filename.iso ~/Desktop/filename.cdr
?

...and to preserve UDF 2.5:

Code: Select all

hdiutil makehybrid -iso -joliet -udf -udf_version 2.5 -o output_filename.iso filename.cdr
...right?

Well, few things:

1. MacOS and underlaying freeBSD does support UDF. Both reading and writing.
From 10.5(2007) there has been support for UDF 2.50.
How do you think DVDfab works in macOS?

2. There is no discussion in that thread, why Imgburn is better than alternatives.

What is the secret sauce of Imgburn?
