Playing a CD with mplayer

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

Okay, okay, what's the secret?

A couple of us are playing CD's with mplayer 1.0pre6 with disappointing
results. Choppy, jerky, hesitant, on fast systems with lots of memory
and no serious competition. Mplayer works like a charm on files and
url's, but accessing the CD drive directly is a bummer.

I know several of you are doing it satisfactorily, so what's the secret?

Chuck
