But /usr/sbin/cdplay uses LBA format in the command 'play', and does MSF format in 'msfplay'. If xcdplayer-2.2 does not run by the above method and if 'play' command of /usr/sbin/cdplay works without any problem, it is possible that your drive does not recieve the MSF format correctly (This occurs to my CD-ROM drive). Test the 'msfplay' command on /usr/sbin/cdplay, especially, do CD>msfplay 0 2 0 5 0 0 (to 5 minutes) and CD>msfplay 0 2 0 17 0 0 (to 17 minutes). +=========================================================+ | Shigeharu TAKENO NIigata Institute of Technology | | Kashiwazaki,Niigata 945-11 JAPAN | |(shige@iee.niit.ac.jp) TEL(&FAX): +81-257-22-8161 | +=========================================================+
