Fedora 11 no longer recognizes audio CDs

[Bad2theBone]

Hey jeo, just got around to downgrading, worked like a champ. System and Rhythmbox are once again "seeing" audio cds. I also noticed that the pkg is now upto 141-6 in test according to the bug report and that version does not correct it. I temporarily added an exception in my repo files for all three pkgs. I guess I'll have to monitor the bug report to see when an actual fix comes down the line before removing the exclude. A little OT but it came up while I was doing this, a bunch of updates came up including one for evolution-backend, while adding the excludes for the above I also added "evolution*", since I don't use it, don't want it, so on. Does anyone know of any problems with my doing it that way? It seemed to ignore the above mentioned evolution file, but are there any other similar named pkgs that I maybe blocking?

So why am I adding to this thread again? Well, there is a problem *playing* audio cds on the new version of rhythmbox.

You double click on a song and it just won't play.

My favorite audio cd fixing command works:

yum downgrade rhythmbox

Good version: rhythmbox-0.12.1-3.fc11

Problem version: rhythmbox-0.12.3-1.fc11

[JEO]

In case anyone is interested I did some udev testing with the different versions and I will attach it as a .txt file. It seems patch4 was intended to fix someone's nokia phone which has a fake cdrom emulated inside it broke the udev audio cd ID_CDROM_MEDIA_STATE= detection for real cdrom drives.

freakin awsome, ive bummed about this for 2 weeks and now its fixed(for now)

I am new to Rhythmbox, Gnome, and Fedora, so I am unsure what to expect. Rhythmbox will not play an audio CD for me in F11, but VLC will.

[JEO]

Try opening a terminal window and type the following commands, then reboot and your audio cds should play:

su -
yum downgrade udev libudev0 libvolume_id rhythmbox

Got the exactly same problem on my Asus F9DC.

I did not notice that until I inserted the newly bought CD. First I thought the Audio CD manufacture got some new copyright protections.

Other media such as DVD and CD-ROM work fine.

I want to add that Amarok doesn't see music CDs either.

It's been over a month since this bug appeared. I updated yesterday and no fix has been released.

I followed the advice of JEO and downgraded udev and it works perfectly
I had udev version 141-4
I found udev-141-3.fc11.i586.rpm
and then :
[root@loge rpm]# rpm -Uvh --oldpackage udev-141-3.fc11.i586.rpm

Then I popped in a audio CD and voila an icon popped up on the screen and
now Rhythmbox Music Player 0.12.3 is working perfectly
shows all the tracks , gets the track info from the Internet

[JEO]

"now Rhythmbox Music Player 0.12.3 is working perfectly"

In my case, I can't *play* audo cds with rhythmbox-0.12.3-1.fc11. I have to downgrade that package to rhythmbox-0.12.1-3.fc11 and then they play.

[scunning]

My RhytmsBox version is 0.12.3 and it works

JEO reports that 0.12.3-1 does not work
so he revved backwards to rhythmbox-0.12.1-3.fc11

It appears that there is more than one bug here.
