KsCD pops up because Hotplug/Magicdev tells it to when you insert the CD. To
quote in part from an earlier e-mail of mine (soon to be appearing in the
Twiki):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, for the obvious question, how to get autoplay to use a digital player
rather than an audio cable one? �At the command line, su to root and edit the
following file:
� � �/etc/dynamic/user-scripts/audio_cd.script
This file contains a list of programs that the system will try to start when
an audio CD is inserted. �The important part of the file are the lines:
� =========================================================
� � �if under_gnome; then
� � � � � �launch gnome-cd --unique --play --device "$DEV"
� � �fi
� � �launch kscd --device "$DEV"
� � �launch gnome-cd --unique --play --device "$DEV"
� =========================================================
If you are a KDE3.2 user, you need to replace the 'launch kscd' line with your
choice of digital player (or insert it as a new line before it). �If you are
a Gnome user, you need to replace the 'launch gnome-cd' line after 'if
under_gnome' with your choice of digital player.
If your choice of digital player is Kaffeine, you need the line:
� � �launch kaffeine $DEV
If your choice of digital player is Amarok, you need the line:
� � �launch amarok $DEV
(Note I'm not 100% sure on this, Amarok keeps crashing with my sound set-up)
If your choice of digital player is XMMS, you need the line:
� � �launch xmms $DEV
(Make sure you have the xmms-cdread package installed).
If your choice of digital player is Totem, its a little more complex. �First
you need to add the following just before the 'if under_gnome' line:
� ==========================================================================
� function launch_totem {
� � type -p totem > /dev/null && gconftool -s /apps/totem/mediadev -t string
$1 && exec totem cd:
� }
� ==========================================================================
That section between the {} brackets should be on 1 line. �Then you need to
replace the 'launch gnome-cd' line with the line:
� � �launch_totem $DEV
(Note the '_' in launch_totem)
Note that this also applies if you want to change which Video player launches
when you insert a DVD, just edit the
file /etc/dynamic/user-scripts/video_dvd.script .
Cheers!
John.
