How to slow down a DVD-rom player?

You didn't list your model number, but do a quick google seach and you will to find a utility that will slow the pioneer drive down to 1X for quietest operation. Drew

Try to look in www.pioneeraus.com.au.

It should be there cause I download from this site.

Hey Hey, damn I like it when it's that easy


Thanx guys.

I use a program called "CD-Rom Tool" it can be found at:

BTW:Just do a search for it

1x????


How did you manage that.


I have the pioneer utility and in "Quiet" mode it only slows down to 9x on their 16x dvd slot load drive.


Still sounds like a vacuum cleaner in the corner...I hate it. What drive can you select 1x? With what software?

Unfortunately "CD-Rom Tool" doesn't effect how DVD's are played. This is a quote directly from the readme txt "As for DVD drives, CD-ROM Tool may be able to control the way the drive behaves when it's reading CD-ROMs/Rs/RWs, but I would not expect it to control the way the drive behaves when reading DVD-ROMs. Any control CD-ROM Tool has over the speed at which a DVD drive reads a DVD is just a fluke. I do not own a DVD drive, let alone one that allows DVD speed changing, so I haven't yet been able to add that functionality."
