Hey, check-out moc-player. It is ncurses-based
and I use it very much,
because it startsup very fast.
No CDDA as far as I can see. And that's in fact rather essential.
Normal sound files including multichannel are handled by my own
player. No mp3 so far, maybe I'll add it. But I need something
to plays CDs when 'out of office'.
Every now and then someone asks me for a CD after a recording.
Burning it is no problem, checking the result is.
For checking the results I would say an external cd-player is better.
Otherwise you probably only know that the drive that burnt them is able to
read them:-)
Other than that: mplayer does what you want, it plays
mp3/ogg/flac/wav/you_name_it, cdda and also does multichannel. I successfully
used it to play ambisonics files within jack. While it normally does auto-
connect to the first hardware-outputs, it can be told to connect to any other
jack-client or to none at all...
Have fun,
