When I try to burn some mp3 files as an Audio CD using my application I get an Unexpected exception if I try a real burn. Making a simulation works fine as well as burning to the Image Recorder. I have downloaded the newest update to Nero.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Peter


DWORD dwFlags = NBF_WRITE | NBF_DAO | NBF_DISABLE_ABORT;
int iRes = NeroBurn(ndhDeviceHandle, NERO_ISO_AUDIO_CD, writeCD, dwFlags, 0, &npProgress);

NeroBurn returns the value 3 and the error log says the following:

I found out that If I change the burn options to:

DWORD dwFlags = NBF_WRITE | NBF_DAO;

burning an Audio CD finally works. But I have no idea why it fails when I have the option NBF_DISABLE_ABORT included.

you got a pm

everyone searching for a solution for the bug nero 6 shows after installation ("Unexpected exception while burning") when trying to start burning, just reinstall the aspi drivers like described here:
http://www.newsup2date.de/aspi-treiber.html

EDIT: Document is deleted so use the description below:

1. Install Aspi Driver 4.60-1019(http://www.brennmeister.com/files/as...i-460-1019.zip)
2. now you can install version 4.60-1021(http://www.brennmeister.com/files/as...i-460-1021.zip)
(note: if you got any adaptec soft/hardware on your computer you might start with point 3)
3. now you can download the newest driver (4.7 atm, http://sub2000.com/modules.php?name=...p=getit&lid=21)
4. Check with the programm aspich.exe (ftp://ftp.adaptec.com/software_pc/aspi/aspichk.exe) if the drivers are installed correctly
5.Download wnaspi32.dll (ftp://ftp6.nero.com/wnaspi32.dll) and copy this into your nero installation folder (mostly C:\Programs\ahead\Nero)

Edit 2:
So this worked fine for me. I dont know if its a Nero6 or XP problem. I had Nero5 installed and installed 6 without uninstalling 5. XP is installed without Aspi drivers, so the problem might also appear without installing Nero6 over an older Nero Version.
With the little program (point 4) you can check before trying this if its a problem with the aspi drivers and if the solution does work for you.
If after one or more parts in the overview (after starting the program) stands N/A and the size of the file(s) is shown as zero, its a problem with Aspi drivers.
