Hi,
I was going to extract from a CD, but am getting a dialog window from grip
stating:
No tracks selected.
Rip whole CD?
On the GNOME desktop is an icon for the CD in question. XMMS is playing
previously extracted mp3's fine. However, where "is" this CD? When I
open the file browser I can click on the "computer" icon in the file
browser, which displays several drives, including the disk in question.
However, I can't get the path to that disk out of the GUI file manager
(nautilus?).
>From GNOME, right clicking on the icon gives an option to copy the CD,
where I select to copy it to the desktop. This gives an error dialog
stating:
File image creation failed
could not run sub process: Failed to execute child
process "cdrdao" (no such file or directory).
Previously I was using soundjuicer, which worked yesterday, but
inexplicably, not today. soundjuicer gives an error that:
Error
Soundjuicer could not extract this CD.
Reason: could not link pipeline.
A data CD, in this case the Fedora rescue CD, can be browsed fine, however.
Furthermore, GNOME isn't having a problem creating a disk image. So, data
CD's work as expected.
Pardon, not really correct usage of the list, but I gotta go, no time for
googling on this at the moment :(
I want to approach this from the command line, but I don't even know the
path for the CD.
