StarBurn_GetDeviceLetter() fails when using internal name

Hello,

It must be name: CdRom0 or CdRom1 or CdRom2 or ....

Please look file "Program Files (x86)\StarBurn Software\StarBurn SDK V15.1 'Stingray'\Samples\StarBurn Core\MSVC\Shared\DeviceFinder.cpp"

method: void CDeviceFinder::FindSPTIDevices()

CdRom# names are used to create SPTI device in this method.

Why don't you use StarBurnX (ActiveX component) ?

Mostly because I had already started using StarBurn Core without knowing there was such a thing as StarBurnX. I might look into the StarBurnX samples now that I am having an issue with multisession discs using SPTI (but not ASPI).

What is the problem with SPTI?

So, I've been trying out StarBurnX and I'm liking it so far. Much easier to use. However, I can't get a disc to burn. StarBurnX is complaining that there is no free space on the disc. The disc is a blank CD-RW. I have used it several times with success with the C# sample DataBurner that was provided with the SDK. I cannot for the life of me figure out what I am doing differently from the sample project. My log file is attached.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Edit: I can't seem to attach the log file.
Edit2: Finally got the file to attach. Had to zip. Your forum apparently does not accept almost every file extension (even no extension).

Apologies for the triple post. But I discovered the cause of my problem.

There is a bug (or intentional oversight) with the IDataFolder::AddDirectory method. The path name of the directory passed to the function must have a trailing backslash. The documentation does not say this and if left out, the burner crashes in the manner described by my log file. The path I was passing did not have a trailing backslash. Now it does. :roll:

Yep, everything is working great now that I'm using StarBurnX!
