Some CDROM drives are slow to respond after issuing a start command, and a subsequent request to play can fail. In xmcd 2.5, a small delay was inserted to work around this problem. If you are running a version of xmcd older than 2.5, I suggest upgrading to the latest, which is 2.5 PL1. You can download it at: http://metalab.unc.edu/tkan/xmcd/ If you are already running 2.5, then perhaps I can work with you a bit to track down the problem. -Ti (author of xmcd) -- \\ // Ti Kan \\/ XMCD + CDA //\ Email: xmcd@amb.org // \\ Web site: http://metalab.unc.edu/tkan/xmcd/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
