Multi-mode (audio+data) CDs always opened by Sound Juicer

[Andrew Jorgensen]

If I insert a CD that has both audio and a data track I am prompted to choose which I would like to open the disk as. This is an improvement over 2.12, but if I later attempt to reopen the folder using nautilus (or the Places menu) it always opens Sound Juicer to rip the tracks.

An expert user can find his data under /media but the average user has no way to get back to the data track after that first view.

Thanks for your bug. If you right click on the CD icon do you have a "browse" option?

[Andrew Jorgensen (ajorg)]

Nope, no "browse" option.

[Sebastian Grössl (sebas)]

I think this bug should be reported upstream.

I actually have a "browse" option on right click. But this also opens SJ. If I use the places menu in nautilus an error pops up:

"cdda:///dev/hdc" is not a valid location.
Please check the spelling and try again.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the upstream bug has been marked as fixed with a comment saying it works fine with GNOME 2.14, do you still have the issue on dapper?

[Sebastian Grössl (sebas)]

I still see the same behaviour.

Since this bug seems difficult to solve, I've listed all the possibilities to access the contents of a Mixed-Mode CD and their respective outcomes below:
(A) After insertion, choose the desired method to open the CD:
Expected result: Open Sound Juicer or Nautilus depending on user selection.
Actual result: Open Sound Juicer or Nautilus depending on user selection.

(B) Doubleclick (or right-click and choose "Open") on CD-ROM icon on your desktop:
Expected result: Sound Juicer opens the CD.
Actual result: Sound Juicer opens the CD.

(C) Right-click on CD-ROM icon on your desktop and choose "Browse...":
Expected result: Nautilus shows the data contents of the CD.
Actual result: Sound Juicer opens the CD.

(D) Choose Places -> CD-ROM:
Expected result: debatable
Actual result: Sound Juicer opens the CD.

(E) Open "Computer" in Nautilus and double-click on CD-icon:
Expected result: debatable
Actual result: Sound Juicer opens the CD.

(F) In Sidebar of Nautilus when "Places" is selected, double-click on the CD-ROM icon:
Expected result: Nautilus shows the data contents of the CD.
Actual result: The folliwing error is reported: "cdda:///dev/hdc" is not a valid location.
Please check the spelling and try again.

(G) In Nautilus manually enter or naviate to /media/cdrom/:
Expected result: Nautilus shows the data contents of the CD.
Actual result: Nautilus shows the data contents of the CD.

So apart from using (A), currently only (G) allows one to open the data part of a CD. This is definitely not enough, since it's also not the most obvious method.
A solution should therefore at least fix (C) and (F).

The issue as originally reported still exists. I don't think this was ever the same as the upstream nautilus bug. It also doesn't have anything at all to do with the libgnomeui bug. Is there a way to delete those associations?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

you can't delete those for the moment bug you can update the bug number. The issue is something that need to be worked upstream and there is already bugs about it, the task number is not really important for that

I'm having this same problem, otherwise the cd will load in Sound Juicer, but the reported fix was made in Gnome 1.4, but I have 1.8 and still have the problem of not being able to view the contents other than SJ. What can I do?

[Russel Winder (russel)]

I just tried this on Feisty Fawn and the problem is still there. Put a disc in and you get the choice dialogue data/cd. I press data and get Nautilus to browse the data. If I then close the Nautilus window, and double click the icon on the backdrop, I get SJ. I have a `Browse Folder' entry on the context menu, but that also starts SJ.

This still occurs in gutsy. exactly as Russel Winder said in comment 9

[Kazade (kazade)]

I am having the same problem; this is really annoying. It happens a lot with games (e.g. Quake2) currently I can't even seem to get to the files via the command line which is weird. "ls /media/cdrom0" lists nothing. If I go to "Browse" on the right click menu it opens the SJ and lists the first track as DATA. This is on Gutsy.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the bug is fixed in the new versions
