+ * SECTION:element-cdiocddasrc
+ * @short_description: Reads raw audio from an Audio CD
+ * @see_also: GstCdParanoiaSrc, GstCddaBaseSrc
+ *
+ * <refsect2>
+ * <para>
+ * cdiocddasrc reads and extracts raw audio from Audio CDs. It can operate
+ * in one of two modes:
+ * <itemizedlist>
+ * <listitem><para>
+ * treat each track as a separate stream, counting time from the start
+ * of the track to the end of the track and posting EOS at the end of
+ * a track, or
+ * </para></listitem>
+ * <listitem><para>
+ * treat the entire disc as one stream, counting time from the start of
+ * the first track to the end of the last track, posting EOS only at
+ * the end of the last track.
+ * </para></listitem>
+ * </itemizedlist>
+ * </para>
+ * <para>
+ * With a recent-enough version of libcdio, the element will extract
+ * CD-TEXT if this is supported by the CD-drive and CD-TEXT information
+ * is available on the CD. The information will be posted on the bus in
+ * form of a tag message.
+ * </para>
+ * <para>
+ * When opened, the element will also calculate a CDDB disc ID and a
+ * MusicBrainz disc ID, which applications can use to query online
+ * databases for artist/title information. These disc IDs will also be
+ * posted on the bus as part of the tag messages.
+ * </para>
+ * <para>
+ * cdiocddasrc supports the GstUriHandler interface, so applications can use
+ * playbin with cdda://&lt;track-number&gt; URIs for playback (they will have
+ * to connect to playbin's notify::source signal and set the device on the
+ * cd source in the notify callback if they want to set the device property).
+ * Applications should use seeks in "track" format to switch between different
+ * tracks of the same CD (passing a new cdda:// URI to playbin involves opening
+ * and closing the CD device, which is much slower).
+ * </para>
+ * <title>Example launch line</title>
+ * <para>
+ * <programlisting>
+ * gst-launch cdiocddasrc track=5 device=/dev/cdrom ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc ! oggmux ! filesink location=track5.ogg
+ * </programlisting>
+ * This pipeline extracts track 5 of the audio CD and encodes it into an
+ * Ogg/Vorbis file.
+ * </para>
+ * </refsect2>
