Great, it's all good to go, but now I've hit another snag. Here's the code Banshee uses to interact with Gstreamer: <a href="http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/banshee/trunk/banshee/libbanshee/gst-playback-0.10.c?revision=2387&view=markup"> http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/banshee/trunk/banshee/libbanshee/gst-playback-0.10.c?revision=2387&view=markup</a> When I call gst_playback_open with the uri "cdda://1#E:", Gstreamer returns the error "Could not read from CD" and provides the debug info " gstcdiocddasrc.c(206): (function) (): /playbin/source: cdio_read_audio_sector at 48483 failed: No error." However, when I run gst-launch-0.10.exe playbin uri=cdda://1#E:, it plays form the CD just fine. Does anything stand out in the Banshee code that might be causing the error on Windows? <div>On 8/6/07, Stefan Kost <<a href="mailto:ensonic@hora-obscura.de">ensonic@hora-obscura.de</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> hi Scott, if the plugin has build, just do make install to install it along with the other plugins. Then check with "gst-inspect cdio" that it is loadable. The plugin or the basclass provides the uri handler, no need to do something extra. Next retry this: gst-launch-0.10.exe playbin uri=cdda://1 Stefan Scott Peterson wrote: > OK, I've successfully built libgstcdio. Where do I put it?
