Thanks for the tips. I'll give them a shot when I get home. One more detail: I have 3 hard drives attached to my system; 1 internal, 2 external. Interestingly, cdda2wav -scanbus shows the internal but only one of the external hard drives. I'd love to know more about what protocol/interface/whatever differences there are between the drives cdda2wav "sees" and those it fails to see. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ azinck3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3967 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47288 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
