For anyone interested, I found another solution. At http://www.cpan.org I found the Audio::CD module for perl (pretty cool). Gives me full control over the cd, can read info from the cd (track names, time, etc.) Does cddb querying, the works. So I think I'll use that and send the required info to PD via a socket.

there's one external that can control the cd player, but it doesn't output audio. you have to use jack. see the complete thread.
I forgot about the audio... Alsaplayer is a good option. But it would also be possible to program an external that grabs the audio directly. There's two XMMS plugins that does it (for XMMS, not PD...) http://www.xmms.org/plugins.php?details=91 http://www.xmms.org/plugins.php?details=219 -- Marc
