Borax Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 (edited) Yes, that's for sure... But it is a little 'information overkill' for me/my application. The only things I want to know (or 'need' to know) are: 1. Is there any media in the specified drive (simple, I can do it myself) If yes: 2. Is the media empty (could probably determined by the 'Media Status' which seems to be either 'MEDIA_STATUS_EMPTY' or 'MEDIA_STATUS_NOT_EMPTY' and nothing else) If yes: OK If no: 3. Is the media 'writeable' (no DVD-ROM, already burned DVD-R...) If yes, ask for overwrite -> OK/cancel This can probably be determined by 'Erasable: Yes' and 'current profile' where 'current profile' may be one of these values: "CD-RW" "DVD-RAM" (?) "DVD-RW" "DVD+RW" "BD-RE" "HD DVD-RW" Is this assumption correct? Edited September 13, 2006 by Borax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 MEDIA_STATUS_UNKNOWN, MEDIA_STATUS_NOT_FORMATTED are also a potential status codes. It should be HD DVD-RAM as that's the new naming scheme, not HD DVD-RW. Also DVD-RW DL, DVD+RW DL exist in the program (not sure if they'll ever actually be made!)

Borax Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 >HD DVD-RAM, DVD-RW DL, DVD+RW DL OK Then I will include these codes. MEDIA_STATUS_UNKNOWN: means imgburn will not be able to burn something? MEDIA_STATUS_NOT_FORMATTED: means a DVD+RW, 'empty' but not formatted and can be burned after formatting? Thanks again for your support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
