I am trying to build a Kodi Media Centre using an old Raspberry Pi 3B and a Lite-On USB DVD/CD rewriteable disk drive.
I have installed LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.2.8.img.gz.
All seems to work reasonably well, except for playing audio CDs. DVDs work fine, but CDs do not seem to be recognised. The drive seems to spin, and a greyed out "Disc" prompt appears in the Kodi menu, but then everything just hangs. The menu can no longer be navigated unless the drive is physically unplugged.
I am a fairly experienced Archlinux user, but I have no idea how to go about fixing this! I would be extremely grateful for any ideas.
Many thanks in advance.
Solution: Further tests demonstrated that CDs will load, but take a surprising length of time, unlike DVDs, which play instantly. I am therefore marking this as "solved".
