I haven't, either.  But I'd be inclined to think that it would.  If your
ISO file is simply an image of what is going to burnt to disc, in
essence what will be streamed to the laser, then you shouldn't have to
do much beyond sending the data towards the optical device.

The fly in the ointment would be whether a optical burner begins burning
when data is sent to it, or whether commands need issuing to it first
(and it could well be that dd isn't completely dumb, nor the device
handlers).

Television should really come with an intelligence knob. I've tried
adjusting the brightness, but it didn't help.
