Hello Spacebar,

Thank you so much for your help. I copied your code and run it. The result is almost there. Would you please help to fix two small problems below.

1-The file name is broke down to multiple file names because of the file name contains space bar.

2-The id counter should counter id=1, id=2 ,id=3 etc...

Otherwise it's perfect. Here is the output from your code.

Code:

<?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?>
<Karaoke>
<item name= "0001" id="1">/dir1/0001</item>
<item name= "More" id="1">/More/More</item>
<item name= "Than" id="1">/Than/Than</item>
<item name= "I" id="1">/I/I</item>
<item name= "Can" id="1">/Can/Can</item>
<item name= "Say.vob" id="1">/Say.vob/Say.vob</item>
<item name= "0002" id="1">/dir1/0002</item>

cdde

cdde(1) 																   cdde(1)

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.

OPTIONS

       -r, --run
	      Run commands on disc already in drive when is started.

       -b, --batch
	      Batch mode: check all drives once then exit. (implies -r)

       -c, --config <filename>
	      Use the config file <filename>. (Default is ~/.cdde.xml)

       -v, --verbose
	      Print out lots of information.

       -V, --version
	      Print out version information.

       -h, --help
	      Print Display this help and exit.

FILES

       ~/.cdde.xml
