Does XBMC attempt to reduce the rotation speed of the DVD drive such that it is quieter? It is quite noisy on playback as it plays at full speed.
These two threads suggest it is not working on Linux. Is this still the case?

Second does it work on windows?
I infer from the posts libcdio may be used to control the speed. If this is the case, would appreciate it someone would point to where in the code the libcdio library routine is called to reduce the speed. Would like to debug this, I'll find it in the code, but maybe some one knows off the top of their head where its called.
Mythtv does a good job of controlling the speed, I may be able to borrow some code from there.
