At last i can watch DVDs in BeOS with my LiteOn DVD-RW combo!
Before 3dEyes coded it, i was forced to use ancient HP DVD reader, because new one, with its idiotic 40x speed, worked in start-stop mode - acellerated to 40, then stopped or slowed down. As result - 5 seconds of video, then 2 seconds pause. Changing buffers in VLC didn't help.
Now it is silent, able to read older CDs and video playback is smooth.

Ok the sansung drive seems to accept speed from 4 to 15x (DVD) and 4 to 48x (CD). Long menu !
btw i switch back from a CDR to a DVDR and speed according to the media is not updated (i would love to be automatic but even manualy... after 4/5 tries, kdl on DVD tracker thread :-( )

It means a drive allows to expose such speeds...
I determine speeds so: I try speeds from 2 up to a maximum and try to expose everyone. If it was possible to expose speed will be added out in the list.
For such cd-drives I do (in the next version) manual editing of the list of speeds. It will allow throws out unnecessary.

right, speed is shown but got strange values : 4,5,6,7,...14,15 !
heu the drive is a Sansung Combo SM348B (48x CD, 16x DVD). Seem to dislike it ?!

Personally, I dont need to use this since I always buy slower drives on purpose (learned my lessen with an old Creative 32x, where the spin up and spin down took longer to access files than an ancient x4 drive, plus was noisy like a jet). Nevertheless, this is a nice hack, a perfect example of scratching an itch. Man, that drive must have given you so much grief to actually make you write this tool :-)

Thanks for this.
But I got 2 drives and the scan menu for the second one in list isn't shown any speed choice after running a scan.
