Hello All
I've configured software apps (e.g. xmms and games like Kohan and Myth II)
to play through the PCM Out channels on my Delta card, but I can't figure
out how to get an audio CD to play out through the PCM Outs. I use xmms as
my CD player and I think it's configured correctly (it always worked fine
with my sblive).
If xmms plays mp3 and wav files to PCM Out, how come it doesn't play CD
audio to the same output stream? There is no CD audio header on the delta
card - how do people using these cards listen to audio CDs? How do they
get the audio to play via the IDE cables and not the old reliable direct
connection from CDROM to sound card? FWIW I have the output plugin in xmms
set to the OSS driver, which snd-pcm-oss seems to pick up just fine.
Are there any ALSA cd players that can handle this?
Suggestions welcome - JB

A basic solution is
cdda2wav -e -N -t1

You want the cdread plugin. It takes the data directly from the cd and
processes it without having to read the analog cd input.
Alsaplayer does exactly the same thing except it's internally supported.
Take your pick. There are probably more guis that allow this too.
For more info see the LAU FAQ.

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No!
We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything
I've ever done.

I gave AudioCD Reader 0.14a a go last night to see if there was any quality
improvement, but there was loads of distortion, no matter where I set the
mixer level. I was using the xmms-cdread RPM from Mandrake 9.0 contribs.
Anyone else seen this?
Cheers

IIRC, you can do that with AlsaPlayer.
and I think there's an XMMS plugin to do the same thing. not sure.

Ok. I get it. The cdda2wav trick (from another post) worked. I'll look
into the xmms plugin, but it looks like I may hafta write my own CD
player. If i had the time...
Thanks for the feedback - JB
