Audio CDs

[jon787]

What is the filesystem I need to specify when mounting an audio CD?
I tried using the iso9660 filesystem that is on the cdrom line in /etc/fstab but that doesn't work. I get a "wrong fs type" error.
Device: /dev/hdc
Mount Point /cdrom

Since the entry is in the fstab file you should be able to use:
mount /cdrom

Read "man fstab" and "man mount"

If that doesn't work post your fstab entry and the exact command you are using and any errors you may receive.

Good Luck,

You don't need to mount your audio cd to play it.

just use a cd player (like cdcd or the audio cd plugin for xmms) and you will be able to listen to your music.

mount /cdrom
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc, or too many mounted file systems

I unmounted my windows partitions and it still didn't work so the last one isn't the problem. This only happens with audio cds. My data cds all mount perfectly fine. But I can't mount a single audio cd.

Read my last post.

I did but I responded after reading the other guys post first. It owrks now thanks.

Do you know of any good mp3 encoders?
Preferably one I can apt-get from a debian site.

I am getting to lazy to walk the distance to my room to pickup my stack of audio CDs. I have plenty of space on my winblows drive to store this crap too.

hmm I think there's no apt-gettable mp3 encoder. Although, you can use the ogg vorbis encoder (oggenc) the package is vorbis-tools.

This is a really nice encoder, doing a really good job. You must give it a try.

Okay thanks.It didn't look like there was one but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

Time to go to google

gRip is a nice program.. You could try that one too.

Grip is only a GUI for cdda2wav or cdparanoia and a encoder (like lame, toolame or oggenc). It's only a frontend calling other programs.
