Rip the CD to the hard drive (assuming doing so is legal in your area of
the world)?
There have been many reports of this issue with CD's and DVD's
(affecting video and audio) read from the drives, but no one has
debugged it or submitted any patches or fixes. So, option 2 would be to
debug it and submit a patch. :)
