Re: audio error in VLC

I got a similar result: :~$ sudo mplayer -cache 500 -cdda speed=1 cdda://1
-cdrom-device /dev/scd0
MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.2.3 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team

Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote
control.

Playing cdda://1.
Can't open disc.
Failed to open cdda://1.

Also about 1/2 the time when I load Hardy I have no sound at all. Other
times I have sound with some things and not others. It's quite unreliable.

I have experimented with the manual page on mplayer and I can't manage
to get the device to open if I use the cdda: option. For instance:

dfox@newbox:~$ mplayer cdda://1/dev/scd0

The cdda:// option for mplayer is separate, as is the device option.
Try something like:

mplayer -cache 500 -cdda speed=1 cdda://1 -cdrom-device /dev/scd0
