Description

Ref: https://www.haiku-os.org/legacy-docs/benewsletter/Issue2-12.html 'Be Engineering Insights: The Sound of Music'

Tested: CDPlayer (BeOS R5) on Haiku R1B3 x86_gcc2

The eject button properly opens the CD tray - but does not close the CD tray when you press the eject button again (i.e. when tray is open). CDPlayer 1.0-1 provided by HaikuDepot does not perform this feature properly either.

NOTE: CD Drivers don't exist for this app anymore [hrev57326 x86_gcc2)?

No specific drivers are needed, the existing IDE/ATAPI driver for CD drives is enough. However, the audio must go directly from the CD player to the soundcard using a specific cable, which is not the case anymore on modern hardware (at least since the introduction of SATA).
