I've got an Acer TravelMate 4202WLMi with a "DVD-Super Multi" drive. Up
until recently, everything was working swimmingly, but of course
something unidentified changed and now I can't play audio CDs.
I first noticed the problem when trying to rip a few CDs. Using Grip I
could see that apparently it wasn't reading any audio data off the CD;
it would spin for a few seconds, give up and move on to the next track.
I can't play the CD directly, regardless of the application I use
(Grip, Amarok, VLC, etc).
I can read data off of a CD with no problem (for example, opening and
reading a text file on a CD). I can play audio that is already on the
hard drive of the machine - also no problem. But there seems to be a
disconnect here and my suspicion is that it's software-based rather than
a hardware problem. Any suggestions on where to look first?
Thanks,
-Don
