Description Nicolas L. 2009-10-02 12:57:37 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs

the Amarok solid action ( amarok-play-audiocd.desktop ) call amarok --cdplay %u but the cdplay argument doesn't exist

amarok: Unknown option 'cdplay'.

I guess you talk about version 2.2.0, right?
You mean you can't play a CD? Strange, as it works fine here.

I just asked te reporter on #amarok
Comment 3 Nikolaj Hald Nielsen 2009-10-02 15:44:50 UTC
This is a valid issue. The problem is when inserting a cd and selecting "Amarok" in the device notification applet for instance. 

I will fix this, but it might require a bit of work as the CD collection ahs the get started before we can do anything.

Nikolaj, is this fixed?
Comment 5 Myriam Schweingruber 2009-12-17 17:17:13 UTC
Any news on this?

Setting target.
Comment 7 Paul L. 2010-01-31 08:35:18 UTC
Kubuntu Karmic 9.10
Version 4.3.5 (KDE 4.3.5)

This problem with Amarok not launching from the Device Notifier widget is still present. I think it is more than just the incorrect command option for the Play Audio CD with Amarok entry in System Settings > Advanced > Device Actions. There it is listed as: amarok --cdplay %u

--cdplay is not a listed option in amarok Version 2.2.0. -p or --play is, but those don't work either if the command entry is changed to either - I've tried.

What's the solution, and more importantly, when will it be implemented?

    Make amarok capable of beginning cd playback on startup, as soon as the audio cd collection is ready.

    This makes the solid action work as intended.

    Initial work on making the solid action for playing audio cd's using Amarok work.

    The action now correctly shows up in the device notifier, and it works if Amarok is already running and has had time to add the audiocd collection
