Can't read audio cds in xmms !!!
I can't hear music in linux except my mp3s .
Never heard one of my cds in linux . and there's another problem,,,, I can't play anything in xmms till I run artscontrol program while playing . I had me to put it in the startup area . How to deal with these 2 problems ? :scratch: |
I need help .
|
Right Cick XMMS
-> Options -> Preference -> Audio I/O Plugins tab and select CD Audio Player -> Configure Set your devices properly... only you will know this. |
Where can I find my devices ?
|
FYI, Linux does not do Digital Audio Extraction like Windows does. What this means is that you need a CD Audio cable connected internally from your CD-ROM to your sound card. There is a plugin available for XMMS, just search the forum for "XMMX CD audio" and you'll find it.
EDIT: Here's the post with the link: |

In console, just type cat /etc/fstab and we will be able to help you more after seeing it. |
What do you mean with posting the contents .
|
I downloaded the file it has been installed very well .
How to set the device ? Do we still need to connect that wire inside the box ? |
Downloaded what file? The fstab is already on your system, I'll need to see what's in it to tell you how to set your CD device. So if you don't mind, please post what you see (copy and paste here) when running cat /etc/fstab.
|
I don't understand the cat/etc/fstab thing you are all talking about .

And the post you told me about,,,
They said that I have to connect somewires inside, Do I have to, About the file I was talking about, It wasn't a file, It was a bunch of files compressed in a .tar file that I have to download as what they said in that post . SO,,, I've downloaded that .tar file and installed the package, forgot to say that it's a cdreading plug in,,, [sorry] I saw the plug in in the plug ins area in xmms and tried to configure . The questions is : How to set the device in that configuration ? an other question: If the device setting is correct,,,,,Where to play my music ? (Where do I find my audio cd files?) I'll be thanking . |
Sorry, We were posting at the same time .
Does anyone k'now how to check If I have that wire or I don't ? |
I need help,
Can anyone explaine to me what is the "cat /etc/fstab" thing is ? what does cat command do ? And I don't k'now how to to locate the right device that I'm using . I have 2 cd drives . 1 reader and the other is writer What to do ? |
I think that's what you mean:
cat /etc/fstab LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults 1 2 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0 /dev/hda1 /home/anmar/.gnome-desktop/Windows vfat iocharset=iso8859-1 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 /dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 Tel me if I'm right please . |
I think I found the device,
It sorted the hole cd in the playlist, But there still no sound . I can't hear anything . |
Forget about reading from CDs for now. Go learn more about linux and how it works by doing other things. Come back later and you'll understand completely how to fix your problem.

Please help me, I have just installed pink tie 9 and cant hear audio cd's like some people above have mentioned.. i can hear the test sound and it can find my sound card alright.. why cant i hear my cd's??
|
I think you should enable the sound from the preferances list in your main menu like the one in redhat,
If it's not the same I got, Then try this command if you use gnome : gnome-sound-properties |

If the CD isn't even being "read" properly (ie. no tracks listed in your player, etc.), make sure that you have configured the program properly to find your CD mount points. |
The guys posted this link to download the cd reading plugin (Same thread)
Note: This work for xmms only (I think):scratch: |

I still have that stupid artscontrol problem,,,,
I need help,, I want to work without it,,HOW? |
Go to your XMMS preference and under Output Plugin choose something else...
Personally I'd recommend OSS Driver... or ALSA if you have it installed. |
I tried OSS,, It's not working ....
And I don't have ALSA,,, Is it available to download ??? Give a link so I can go to download ... I'll be thanking . |

checking for libasound headers version >= 0.9.0... not present.
configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found. __________________________________________________ I tried to compile ... All I did is : ./configure Then couldn't do "make" command. What to do now ? |
Waiting for an answer,, It doesn't install alsa,,,,,
What to do now ? ,Please . |
