Open up a file, point it to the CD device (usually /dev/cdrom for IDE/ATAPI cdroms). It will read the tracks and grab the information in digital format from the CD vs playing it the regular analog way. It's pretty cool. That way it can still make the spectrum analyzer work on the data vs. an alalog signal from the CD player. -- Marc Christensen http://www.mecworks.com/~marc/resume/ http://counter.li.org/cgi-bin/runscript/display-person.cgi?user=9502
