I dunno :? He didn't say that he wanted to hear it... Did he? Also let's not forget that I'm not very smart.

i know the feeling; breathing all those lead fumes while making your own cables may have something to do with it.

I'd assume the CD has no analog audio connection, so the best you can do is to just rip it from the tablet itself (much like your desktop would do, only it would play the files while ripping them).

See cdparanoia and sons for that.

Isn't the more obvious answer put it in a hifi? ;-)

Mplayer also comes to mind. Command line of course!

mplayer cdda://

Been there, tried that & failed :(

Re: how can I play an audio cd?
 

I think it is as the observant javispedro pointed out; you need a digital audio cable from the CD player to the tablet to hear CD audio from your tablet. I had forgotten that I couldn't listen to CDs on my computer unless that audio cable was wired in.

And ripping the CD tracks on the tablet wouldn't be the most joyous experience, especially if you tried to make MP3s (but that's your only hope)...

Wrong conclusion!!!!!!!:D

all the necessary data goes over the usb connection (I know, I just tried it!)

Voodoo six are currently playing away through my usb cdrom thats hooked up to my laptop.

I wonder if mplayer has simply been built without cd support?:confused:
