[gentoo-user] xcdroast 0.98alpha16: Empty CD

[Hartmut Figge <h.figge@gmx.de>]

Greetings,

on my current machine xcdroast fails to recognize an inserted CD in the
CD-reader. I do not often burn CDs and had switched to cdw which works
fine. Nevertheless, xcdroast was once my favorite and I am curious. :)

Starting xcdroast with -d 10 shows the problem:

DGB1: spawning: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDDA2WAV -D "2,1,0"
-J -g -Q -H -v toc,summary,sectors,titles
DGB10: readtoc: cdda2wav: Invalid argument. Cannot open output fd 0.

On one partition I have an old Gentoo, last used 2011, also with
xcdroast 0.98alpha16. That one recognizes an inserted CD. Chrooting into
it and running xdroast with -d 10 gives this:

DGB1: spawning: /usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin/xcdrwrap CDDA2WAV -D "2,1,0"
-J -g -Q -H -v toc,summary,sectors,titles
DGB10: readtoc: Type: ROM, Vendor 'HL-DT-ST' Model 'DVDROM DH18NS40 '

[...]

Running the cdda2wav command in the console doesn't help.

Versions of cdda2wav and kernel are different, but in both cases the
output goes to the console. So the question is, where does this 'open
output fd 0' come from and what to do about it?
