audio error in VLC

[Gary Kirkpatrick]

When I did mplayer  -cache 500 -cdda speed=1 cdda://2 the  music played, as
did the others.  Something wrong with the first one?


When VLC trys to play the cd, I get Unable to open
'cdda://scd0/Track%201.wav'.  Could it be due to a problem with the first
cut?  I'll try another cd I made at the same time.

Movie players says 'stream contains no data.'
