When I nowadays insert a DVD/CD into the player, the LED starts flashing and the disk spins up. And keeps spinning some 4 minutes, then at last stopping automatically. Very annoying as that spinning is done at maximum playerspeed with inherent noise. Audio, video, data, all the same. On the desktop meanwhile appeared an icon with the title-text of the disk. Clicking on it offers some actions, but not the most needed one "close". I disabled in control center services the media notifier daemon but to no avail, even after rebooting. The icon kept popping up. Where else is a possibility to switch off the autodetect-function?
Regards, Peter.

autodetect itself is handled by the drives firmware, then - when the drive is happy with the disk - the kernel and udev. If you want to disable the icon - which is just a GUI thingie and has nothing to do with the autodetect - go to "Kontrollzentrum -> Arbeitsfläche -> Verhalten" and select the tab "Gerätesymbole". Adjust th markers to your needs.

Can you play the DVD at all?
I am on Fujitsu C700 SFF and when I insert a dvd or CD it spinns to read the meta - but it is rather short.
do you have the libraries installed?
look in the system logs or dmesg to see - might be something wrong with player and/or dvd

Flawlessly.

Up to 4 minutes often.

Ofcourse, otherwise no play.

Not at all and no relevant entries there. But I discovered with "ps ax" when I insert a DVD:
3872 pts/4 Ss 0:00 /bin/bash 3874 ? I 0:00 [kworker/0:0-events] 3892 ? S 0:00 tdeio_media [tdeinit] media /tmp/tdesocket-peter/tdelauncher760IzT 3893 ?

So *something* is triggering tdeio_media to start with the annoying consequence. How can I prevent this *something* to get active?

Have you tried with a new default USER? If it behaves differently you could compare the configurations, i.e. some select config files.
