[MPlayer-users] Re: Can mplayer play audio CD's?

[Richard Bromley]

You may have to specify which device the CD-ROM is, i.e.:

$ mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/cdrom1 cdda://

Replace /dev/cdrom1 with the CD-ROM device file name on your system.
Afterwards, you might want to add that parameter as an entry in your
~/.mplayer/config file, so you don't have to specify it as an mplayer
argument every time.

To play specific tracks, just specify the number, e.g., to play track 2:

$ mplayer cdda://2

or to play tracks 1-4:

$ mplayer cdda://1-4
