We just received a pair of RRD42s from DEC. The interesting thing about them
is that on the front panel there is a jack for a set of headphones and a
volume control. There's also a pair of RCA connectors on the rear for left
and right stereo sound. The documentation that comes with the drive indicates
that it will read the following formats:
CDROM mode-1 data disc
CDROM mode-2 data disc
CD audio disc
Audio-combined disc
And there's a little note under the audio output section indicating that
support is operating system dependent.
So, how do I play my audio CDs? Has anyone been able to do this?

Has anyone been able to do this? > At the latest DECUS Symposium, DEC had a booth set up with a number of third-party SCSI devices including the bare SONY drive, playing an audio CD. Their intent was to demonstrate enhanced SCSI support in a FUR of VMS. -- Jonathan M. Prigot j_prigot@wrglex or ...!{drilex|think}!wrglex!j_prigot
