Mplayer: Play Audio CD Using Linux Command Line

To play an audio CD using the Linux command line with mplayer, you can use the following command:

mplayer cdda://

This will launch mplayer and start playing the audio CD that is currently inserted in your CD drive. You can control playback using the standard mplayer controls, such as p to pause and q to quit.

If you have multiple CD drives, you can specify the CD drive to use with the -cdrom-device option, like this:

mplayer cdda:// -cdrom-device /dev/sr0

Replace /dev/sr0 with the device path of your CD drive. You can find the device path by running the following command:

ls /dev/sr*

This will list all CD/DVD drives on your system, and you can identify the device path of your CD drive from the list.
