DVD DMA with hdparm

This is a discussion about DVD DMA with hdparm in the Linux Hardware category; Cannot enable it, hence my DVD playback is choppy (audio/video stalls every 2-3 sec). When i run hdparm -d1 /dev/dvd as root, I get: HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted Running RH8 with default kernel.

Cannot enable it, hence my DVD playback is choppy (audio/video stalls every 2-3 sec).
 
When i run "hdparm -d1 /dev/dvd" as root, I get:
 
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
 
Running RH8 with default kernel...DVD drive supports native UDMA2, it reports it in the POST screen.
 
Any ideas?
