Redhat 9 CD problem

Azain · 05-17-2003, 03:16 PM

Hello again people,
Heres the problem. I hear sounds and everything. I play games and hear the music. But when I pop in a CD I can't hear it play. I know it can read it and everything. The music just doesn't come out of the speakers when I play it.

How your trying to play your music from the cd? Is it mounted?

It sez that it automatically mounts itself. I'm a newbie so I don't know what that means. Though I can rip the CD and play the files. I'd rather just play the files.

audio cdroms are played thru a cable from the cd drive
directly to the sound card. your audio mixer could have
that input turned all the way down, you can check, or
you may not have that cable on your computer. the
windows cd player has the option for player thru the
ide cable by direct access, but the commonly used
linux cdplayers, i don't think have. see if there is a
small round cable going from the back of your cdrom
drive to the sound card.
