====== CDDrive ======

===== About =====
This plugin puts a button in the panel to open or close a CD-ROM drive tray.

Additionally, the button icon reports the content of the drive. The icon indicates if there is a disc in the drive, if it is mounted, and the type of the disc (regular CD-ROM, audio, DVD...).

You can also mount or unmount the disc via the plugin menu (the action appears when a mountable disc is in the drive).

===== Usage =====

Place it in your panel and open the configuration dialog to select a CD-ROM drive to associate with the plugin.

===== Screenshots =====

**Note:** The plugin picks the icons from the theme in use. In the screenshots below, i set mine to "Gorilla" because it has different icons for audio and regular CD.

===== Dependencies =====
  * Works correctly on Linux only.

  * This plugin is based on HAL. It will not work if 'hald' is not running.

  * The plugin can query the freedb.org servers for audio CD titles. To compile with this feature enabled, you need libcdio and libcddb. The gthread-2.0 library is also recommanded in this case to prevent the plugin from hanging while waiting for freedb.org response, but is not mandatory.

===== Reporting Bugs =====

Bugs should be reported to the [[http://bugzilla.xfce.org|Xfce bug tracking system]] (product ''Xfce Panel Plugins'', component ''xfce4-cddrive-plugin'').
