Has anyone got any views on dvdidle?
the link is dvdidle.com
its suppose to preserve the life of your dvd rom by using the hard drive ie instead of the rom spinning all the time creating heat and noise it utalises the hard drive so in a typical movie running for 90 minutes the dvd rom only spins for 15 minutes.It works for win dvd and power dvd ok but i must stress its not happy with the theatertek player (possibilly those ravisent filter) anyway its a 30 day free trial and if you want to make it permenant it cost about £12-£14 to register (if i remember properly)
the obvious question i asked the author was how do i know its working, the answer is after a while the busy led light on the dvd rom goes out.
hope this is useful to some of you
regards
