Is there an external that can read an audio CD, control it and read the song titles?

If you're on Gnu/Linux, you can use the shell extension with scripts that use the commands from the cdtool suite: http://hinterhof.net/cdtool/
And if you feel like coding your own C externals, the source from these tools would be a good start! But there might be some external out there that already does what you need... -- Marc

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
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.

Speaking of XMMS, it would also work like AlsaPlayer, because there's many plugins for external control and one output plugin for jack. http://xmms.org/plugins.php?category=misc http://xmms-jack.sourceforge.net/

I would prefer Alsaplayer, for one, because it runs much more stable on all my systems than XMMS, which sometimes just stops. And second: You can control alsaplayer using the Pd external apctl: http://test.pilot.fm/pd/externs/
