-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 yeah macs dont have the analog sound cable, which is good and bad. good because you dont get interferance but bad because your cd doesnt just do all the work.
you can get xmms to play audio cds on powerpc by firing up xmms, right clicking on xmms options -> preferences then select the audio cd plugin from the input plugins list, click configure then set from analog to digital there is a built in cd audio plugin and different cd audio plugin in the package trees (late, cant remember proper name). but it didnt seem to be anymore usefull, stable or features than the default xmms one. i would say that digital playback is technically better than analog. but thats beyond the scope of this forum Dean Elimar Riesebieter wrote: | On Sat, 01 May 2004 the mental interface of | Christian Luijten told: | | |>On Fri, Apr 30, 2004 at 07:26:52PM +0200, Elimar Riesebieter wrote: |> |>>I am trying to play an audio cd with |>>cdcd, xmms and grip => no output |>> |>>alsaplyer => output |> |>cdcd, xmms and grip (falsely) assume you can transmit analog audio from |>your CD player.
