dbminter Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Sometimes I've seen the manufacturer's string displayed as a Manufacturer ID and sometimes as a Disc ID. Is one term just an older term for the other and is no longer used? Or is there supposed to be one term preferred over the other? Of course, I'm only going by memory, so who knows how long MID might no longer be used.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I think it came from the dvd 'plus' and 'minus' format people. The multimedia command set just has different names for the fields that info is stored in... and the field it's stored in is different for plus and minus. They're essentially the same thing so just use whichever one you prefer. I've gone with MID in the program.
dbminter Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 i thought just today I saw a use of DID/Disc ID in one of the right window fields in ImgBurn.
LIGHTNING UK!

But at the top of the disc info where it shows the MID of a disc in the same place for all discs, it uses MID
