XfreeCD audio-cd player
Introduction to XfreeCD
XfreeCD is an audio-cd player for Linux (and, maybe, other *NIX) operating systems. XfreeCD is based on a GTK2 toolkit, which makes it a fast, beautiful and fully unicode-compatible application. Also, it supports CDDB.
You may want to use XfreeCD if you:
- use Linux
- run a light GTK2-based environment (like ROX, or XFCE)
- don't want to run a lot of GNOME libraries just to listen to a CD
- want a dedicated CD-player (as opposed to BMP or XMMS)
XfreeCD is distributed under the GPL licence (v2 or later).
XfreeCD was originally made by Brian C. Lane, and was later abandoned by him. I took it over now, because i liked and used it on my slow boxes, and i wish to finally learn programming (because that's why i'm attending my university, anyways). So please don't be mad if you find something really lame in the sources. :D
Currently biggest bugs in XfreeCD:
- it crashes if the config directory is not available. To workaround that, you must create a ~/.config/XfreeCD directory on your box the program quits if it is unable to create the config directory. That is very unlikely to happen, though…
- it seems to freeze if there's no audio compact disc in a CD-tray. At least it does so on my powerbook…
Features I wish to implement:
