Hack: PatchBurn -- Enabling DVD/CD Burning to Unsupported Burners on Mac OS X, iTunes and DiscBurner

Hacking Mac OS X Panther and Tiger to burn to Generic non-Apple DVD/CD Burners
I was helping my younger brother find a software that would let him burn iTunes music and iPhoto pictures to an external DVD burner--the NEC ND-3500A burner in a USB 2.0 external case. I used to do this for him once when he was using Mac OS X Panther. Unfortunately, he's never been able to burn a DVD again since he upgraded to Tiger because I could not remember the name of the software.
I spent some time searching thru my software archive today and finally got the name and the link to the homepage of this software here. I think it would be useful to many of you.
Here is the description from the PatchBurn homepage:

Here is the description from the PatchBurn homepage:
PatchBurn is a tool to patch existing CD/DVD-drivers (under Mac-OS X 10.2.x) or to generate and install new device profiles (under Mac-OS 10.3.x and later)
It allows many, otherwise unsupported burners to be used directly with Mac-OS X, iTunes and DiscBurner.
