AcetoneISO – Easy ISO Manager for Linux

Other than the command line, have you ever wondered how you can manage your CD/DVD images (ISO) more easily and efficiency in your Linux machine? AcetoneISO may jolly well be the answer to your needs.

AcetoneISO is a feature-rich and complete software application to manage CD/DVD images in your Linux system. It runs the poweful fuseiso in the backend and provides a very user-friendly frontend for its users to handle the image file easily. If you have tried and used fuseiso before, you will know that it supports a large variety of CD/DVD images, including ISO, BIN, NRG, MDF and IMG, which in turn makes AcetoneISO a versatile and powerful tool.
Installation

AcetoneISO is found in the repository of all Linux distro, so it can be easily installed via the respective APT manager. Alternatively, you can also download the installation package for your distro.

When you first run AceToneISO, it will run you through the configuration process and help you to set up the environment for you to work in. There are some options that you are required to configure, including the ISO settings, selecting the default media player application, the file manager to use, and the storage directory.

To mount a CD/DVD image, you just have to select the “Open Image” option in the File menu. It will automatically mount the selected ISO file to the Virtual Drive folder in your Home directory. To unmount, simply highlight the respective file entry in AcetoneISO and click the unmount button.

Here is a warning: while testing the unmount feature in Ubuntu, I have found that I am unable to unmount the image within Nautilus. The only way to unmount the image is to use the unmount button in the AcetoneISO application. Some of you might be annoyed by this, but that is how it works.

Other than the default mounting and unmounting of image files, AcetoneISO also comes with other functionality to allow you to edit and manage your image files. Here are some of them:
Image conversion (with PowerISO)

AcetoneISO makes use of the great functionality found in PowerISO (free for Linux users) to provide some of the useful image conversion features to its users. You can now use it to convert image to ISO, convert Mac OS image (DMG file), extract image content to a folder (without mounting), generate ISO from CD/DVD and even create a ISO from folder(s).

Using the image conversion features require you to install PowerISO in your system. If you have not installed PowerISO, AcetoneISo will prompt you about it and help you to download and install.

Utilities

The Utilities menu comes with several functions such as mounting your image in a specified folder, generate the Md5-sum of the image, extract the boot image or even generate Cue for BIN/IMG images.
Archive manager

The archive manager feature is one powerful function in AcetoneISO. It allows you to split the image into several volumes (best used when the file size is too big), compress images, encrypt the images or even extract a RAR password-protected ISO (you will need to have the password before you can extract).
Working with Video/Audio

AcetoneISO can also be used to download, extract, convert video and audio component of an image. You can use it to rip a DVD (or generic video) to a xVid avi video file and convert a FLV (YouTube format) file to AVI. Better still, you can download YouTube and Metacafe videos right within the AcetoneISO application. Once you have downloaded the video, you can also extract the audio component from the video file (under the Audio menu). On a side note, you may also convert online video to mp3 audio using VidToMP3.

I am not sure how often you would have to deal with ISO or various image files, but when you do (and you are a Linux user), I am sure that AcetoneISO is the only tool you need to get everything done. It may not be the best yet, but it is getting close.

    Rachunkowośc to branża, w którą nie zagłębiają się w większości nazbyt często te osoby,
    jakie nie wiążą z tym własnego doświadczenia. Generalnie rzecz biorąc, rachunkowośc
    nie będzie w sumie branżą, a systemem ewidencji gospodarczej, jaki
    ma ujmować w miarach pieniężnych wszystkie operacje majace miejsce w tej
    konkretnej jednostce istniejącej na rynku. Ustawą o rachunkowości są objęte bez wyjątku wszystkie jednostki zajmujące się procesami produkcji, dystrybucji oraz
    konsumpcji i akumulacji towarów. Zapisy rachunkowe odbywające się
    w biurach rachunkowych mają za zadanie odzwierciedlić zdarzenia prowadzone
    w jednostce funkcjonującej na gospodarczym rynku.

    Obecnie biura księgowe nie muszą upominać się na niewielką ilośc potencjalnych klientów.
    Zgłaszają się do takich głównie przedsiębiorcy, którzy
    mają jednoosobowe działalności gospodarczej. Takich osób jest dzisiaj
    na rynku naprawdę dużo. Prowadząc i obsługując samemu firmę, nie da się o wszystko zadbać
    osobiście. Dlatego też korzystają oni z usług oferowanych na rynku, jakie mogą być się naprawdę dobrym rozwiązaniem.
    Jedną z dziedzin, jaka zajmuje się obsługą takiej działalności jest właśnie rachunkowość oferująca
    oferty księgowe, jaka ma czuwać na prawidłowością rachunków
    w firmie.
