Hi [MA]Flying_Meat...

Update on Quicktime Player write problem.

I changed csrutil from enable to disable using the official method and I now have full root access via the terminal.

However......
Quicktime Player still has the same error.
See attached image.

I can only assume that Apple have crippled QTP to be GUI only as this error does NOT occur in OSX 10.12.0 and 10.12.1 and when run from the GUI... ;o(

I will pursue it further for the time being but I don't expect any positive results.

You can perform the following tasks: o Play, pause, stop, or eject a CD o Move through the tracks on the CD o Adjust the output volume from the CD o Edit the CD track information If you are connected to the Internet, CD Player will attempt to retrieve CD information from CDDB.

If you are connected to the Internet, CD Player will search a CDDB server for that CD's identity and return the information found. This usually includes Title, Artist, and Track information. Once retrieved, this information is stored locally under $HOME/.cddbslave. If you choose to edit this information, you will overwrite what is stored under $HOME/.cddbslave. OPTIONS
