Hi list,

I'm building a dvd player.
Dvd is played fine except that it is _extremely_ slow.

I had the same issue running it under Linux. The fix was to enable the
DMA support via hdparm in the IDE harddisk configuration.

My question will be :
Does Cygwin allow the use of the DMA channel to read files/devices ?
