Thanks,

I have a question before applying:
How do you use mplayer to play CD audio?

mplayer cdda://      ?
or
mplayer -cdda:generic-dev /dev/mycdrom cdda://		?

By removing the lines:

+#if defined(__NetBSD__) 
+  generic_dev = dev; 
+#endif 

You should be able to play a CD audio by using:

mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/mycdrom cdda://

I don't really understand why you need to do a

generic_dev = dev;

Thanks for answering,

Bertrand
