fwir, xmms cvs before the 1.0.1 release had that plugin, but it disappeared for the 1.0.1 release, and hasn't re-returned. Several freshmeat searches have proved fruitless, so I don't think it's been separated into an external archive. Probably worth working backwards through the xmms cvs. On my iBook I use "cdda2wav -D /dev/cdrom -N -e". -- rob off list/ng replies: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
