By default, the gnome-cd application included with
gnome-extra/gnome-media-2.18.0 is unable to play CDs. When started, it gives
the error `No URI handler implemented for "cdda"'. Installing
media-plugins/gst-plugins-cdio, currently without a package marked stable,
solves this problem.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Without gst-plugins-cdio installed, install gnome-media 2.18.0.
2. Insert a CD and open `gnome-cd' from the command line.
Actual Results:
gnome-cd spits out an error and claims it cannot find the disc.
Expected Results:
gnome-cd should recognize the disc and allow the user to play it.
We can't depend on it until it doesn't have a stable version, or we'll be stuck
in ~arch for gnome-media till then.
Gstreamer plugins are supposed to be dynamic like that - ideally instead of
depending on any of them, you would be told what package you need to emerge to
enable a functionality you try to use - like libgimmecodec in Ubuntu, I think.
There are plans for such a gstreamer hook for Gentoo, similar to what Ubuntu
and now also Fedora has, but no-one has taken the time to implement this yet.
Just a version that tells what package to emerge in the command line would be a
good start.
@reporter, does it also work with gst-plugins-cdparanoia ? (you'll have to
temporarily remove gst-plugins-cdio to test that, use quickpkg and emerge -k to
restore).
ok did the tests myself in the end, it appears to work with both
gst-plugins-cdio and gst-plugins-cdparanoia. Added the deps, closing.
