Audio Control for the CD Drive

In order to control the playing of audio CDs on your CD drive, you will need a third party “CD player” application. One such application that supports HP workstations is xmcd. This is a third-party “CD player” utility that runs on an X window system using the Motif graphical user interface. The xmcd utility is not supported by Hewlett-Packard. Since the xmcd utility is not a part of HP-UX, you will need to download it off the web using your web browser and this URL:
