Problems calling cdrdao from python 2.3

[Jeremy Wilkins]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use popen3 to call cdrdao from within python, it gets half way through though then hangs. This is easy to replicate from the interpreter.

import popen2
child = popen2.Popen3('cdrdao disk-info --device 0,0,0'.split(' '), 1, 100)
child.fromchild.read()

The above code works fine, the code below reads half the cd then hangs though.

import popen2
child = popen2.Popen3('cdrdao read-cd --device 0,0,0 testfile'.split(' '), 1, 100)
child.fromchild.read()

If I close python, it seems to read in some more of the cd, but doesn't finish properly since no toc file is written.

Any help appreciated.

Jeb
