Re: cdda2wav


I found a way to use cdda2wav that works for me:
	"nice -5 cdda2wav -t 1 -I generic_scsi -D 0,3,0 control.wav"

The nice setting is because I have a very old machine and I wanted to
answer email.

"-t 1" is first track only.
"-I generic_scsi" is to backup and use the old way of talking to the
	drive.
"-D 0,3,0" is the new way of specifing the device.
"control.wav" is the output file name.

I had three main problems:
	1. A very old drive, and a slow machine.
	2. My primary CDROM is atapi and was not usable by cdda2wav,
	   due I think to the speed of the machine.
	3. My scanner kept getting identified as a CDROM.

So everything works now, I'm now trying the Blade package to convert the
.wav to a .mp3.  It seems to be working.
