[mythtv-users] Auto detection of media

Peter,

This is what works for me:

CDRom doesn't recognize when a CD has been inserted; for playing a CD.
	Add to /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit:
		mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/cdrom /media
		This fixes the problem.
	To get it to automatically play a  CD when loaded:
		Enable  "Monitor CD/DVD" setting in "General Settings"
		Under that, enable "Use new media"
		Enable "Automatically play CDs" in General Settings under Music Settings

It takes the system a while to sense the inserted CD and start playing, 
but it does work.

Good luck.

Joe Henley
