Getting device address when using FindDeviceEx example

I'm using the FindDeviceEx method to find/create my burner objects instead of using the FindDevice callback. Since I'm not using the callback I don't get the device address. For example if I wanted to set or get the timeout of the device I could not do that without having the device address. I don't need it just yet but I may need it at some time in the future so how do I get the device address?

One other thing slightly related. Does GetDeviceNameByDeviceAddress return the volume/path(ie. G:\)?

You cannot set timeout as it's ASPI-relative feature. Also at least USB/FireWire devices don't have SCSI address at all. Our ASPI layer simulates them and they are application wide only (not system wide).
