NAME
cd-discid - read CD and get CDDB discid information.
SYNOPSIS
cd-discid [devicename]
DESCRIPTION
In order to do CDDB queries over the Internet, you must know the DiscID
of the CD you are querying. cd-discid provides you with that
information. It outputs the discid, the number of tracks, the frame
offset of all of the tracks, and the total length of the CD in seconds,
on one line in a space-delimited format. cd-discid was designed as a
backend tool for cdgrab (now abcde) but will work independently of it.
OPTIONS
devicename
CD-ROM block device name that contains the CD to be queried. If
this option is omitted, the following device name is assumed:
/dev/cdrom
for Linux and FreeBSD
/dev/cd0a
for OpenBSD and NetBSD
/dev/vol/aliases/cdrom0
for Solaris
/dev/disk1
for MacOS X
