I have made an CDDA player for the Amiga called Interplay. It works perfect
with the Archos Overdrive, CD32 and scsi-drives using the squirrel interface.

I would also like the player to work with any scsi drive connected to the
SCSI port. Interplay uses the cd.device, and I noticed that the CDFileSystem
contains the word cd.device. But when mounting CD0: as standard from Commodore
in WB3.1, the cd.device is not created in RAM. I can't find it on the disks or
in the ROM. Does anyone know anything about this? Is so, please conntact me as
I need someone to test Interplay with scsi cd roms.

Sounds like yet another C= file system hack (you can find the word
"trackdisk.device" in L:FastFileSystem).

But I  heard that cd.device would work under WB 3.1, but I haven't someone to
confirm this! Some says it works woth their SCSI drives, but they are not sure
which filesystem they use, etc.
Do you know exactly where the cd.device is used? I know  that Archos Overdrive
and CD32 uses it. SCSI CD-ROMs connected  to the  Squirrel interface also
works!

Hello,

I sent you email on this but I can confirm that on my 3.1 3000 cd.device
works. The only time I use cd.device is when I am playing a CD32 game off of
my HD. The cd.device is from the ASIMware 3 disk, there are also some other
drivers as well, including cdtv.device.

Could you please try Interplay for me then? I am sure you also like it. It is
a really good cd audio player (92% in Amiga Shopper). You can find it on
aminet as disk/cdrom/Interplay41.lha

Sure thing will do, I will let you know how it works out. If I end up using
it I will have to get creative as I play Worms from my HD instead of my CD32
and if cd.device is present worms thinks it is being run from a CD32.
