Hello just a question, i was wandering which
software is best for cd playing on XFCE4 ?
I tried apolos, but on long song title, the scroll
makes the window change size constantly....
I tried alsaplayer but cant read from any of
my cd's ( and i cant find any ways to change
the device its pointing ).
What else should i try ???
:shock: :?:

xmms should do the trick.

I tried xmms , ok it works but i dont find it
very user friendly when playing cd's.
I managed to find the way to edit alsaplayer
config file which is hidden in my home directory.
Change to pointing cd device to : /dev/cdroms/cdrom0
and voila !!! everything works great !!!
I have CDDA , playlist and a few scopes which are
pretty good .
Thanks.

there's another based on xmms (but with GTK2)... bmp (beep-media-player)
just do:
# pacman -S bmp
$ beep-media-player & (to execute)

Beep's pretty buggy though, but at least it's moving along pretty quickly in its development, and maintains most compatibility with XMMS. The only real advantage for me, really, is that it uses my fonts. Ever since I decided to use really cool fonts, XMMS has bothered me.
If you develop an ear for sounds that are musical it is like developing an ego. You begin to refuse sounds that are not musical and that way cut yourself off from a good deal of experience.

pacman -S vlc.
does CD digital audio extraction and much more

dcd is the best (kisa -- keep it simple, Americans :-D), but it doesn't have playlist support... I wrote a bash wrapper that adds persistent playlist support if anybody's interested.

Grip is also worth a look in my opinion if you don't mind having a couple of gnome libs on your system.

Just check in your home directory there is a
hidden alsaplayer config file. Edit the cdrom line
to the drive you want it to point, ex: /dev/cdrom/cdrom0
Save the file and thats it.
Hope i explained it correctly since i'm at work and cant tell
the true name of it.
Bye.
