NAME

       cdde - Compact Disc Detect & Execute

SYNOPSIS

       cdde [-c filename] [-rbvVh]

DESCRIPTION

       cdde  is  a  program that detects when a cdrom drive on your system has
       had a disc inserted.

       When it finds a disc inserted in the drive it will attempt to determine
       the type of the disc, and execute a specified command.

       This  means  you  can  put in a dvd and your favorite dvd software will
       start, or put in a data cd and it will  be  automatically  mounted  for
       you.

       Right now cdde can detect the following types of discs:
               * audio cd
               * data cd
               * dvd
               * mixed audio/data cd
               * vcd
               * svcd
               * blank cdr/dvdr

       For  now  the dvd checking is just a bit of magic that checks to see if
       there’s a "video_ts" directory on the  disc.  Same  goes  for  the  vcd
       checking: it just looks for a "vcd" directory on the disc.

       cdde  reads  its  configuration  from  "~/.cdde.xml"  unless  otherwise
       specified on the command line.
