Hi,

I hope this question was not posted a hundred times before, if so, please excuse.

Is there a way to "communicate" with the InCD helper application from within the Nero SDK (or, from operating system)? Especially to launch the formatting process to prepare a medium for PacketWriting?

Thanks in advance.

No, unfortunately NeroSDK has no support for working with InCD programmatically.

Thank you for your reply.

Would it be possible to "format" a disk using the PacketWriting Interface?

Or could I use the PacketWriting Interface it in another way, and if yes, where could I find some code snippets?

Thanks in advance, any idea or suggestion would be welcome.

Let me know if find anything... i am currently kicking off Incd..

DvdError NeroDvdCommands::FormatDvd( const CString& drive )
{
try
{
CString pathname (_T("C:/Program Files/Ahead/InCD/InCDL.exe" ));

if ( UsFile::Exists( pathname ) )
{
CString command_line( pathname );
CString start_directory( _T("c:/2300") );
bool hidden = false;
bool wait_to_complete = false;
if ( UsSystem::StartProcess( pathname, command_line, start_directory,
hidden, wait_to_complete ) )
{
return( DvdOk );
}
else
{
......
}

I forgot to mention..... works about 80% of the time. 20% of the time it leaves the CD /DVD in a confused state.... sigh
