Daemon Tools Lite V10 (1 Viewer)

[nl62544]

Hi All,

I had a perfect working MP and I am such a happy user Today my Daemon Tools Lite updated to version 10 and now I am in big problems.

I cannot get my ISO to mount and I tried to get back to an old versio, DTLite4402-0131 but that generated Syntax errors mounting and unmouting the iso.

I cant get it to work anymore and i dont know what to do.

Please help me.

Thanks.

Forget Daemon and use Virtual CloneDrive. It works perfect.

The OP was referring to Daemon Tools Lite version 10. In fact, since version 5 of Daemon Tools, the issue arose. Daemon Tools from version 5 and onwards creates the actual drive subsequent to opening an ISO file. Prior to mounting, the drive letter does not exist and also when the ISO file is dismounted, the drive letter no longer exists. In version 4 the drive letter existed as a drive with no media inserted. I am not sure if this is the reason for the problems that the OP and I have encountered. Perhaps the Daemon Tools command line arguments which MediaPortal relies on have changed since version 5 of Daemon Tools?

Virtual Clone Drive is not a viable solution as far as I am concerned as it suffers from incompatibilities with many ISO images and has not been updated for a while.

OP, you can continue to use Daemon Tools Lite 4, but install the current SPTD driver, prior to reverting back to Daemon Tools 4.

Sorry to say so, but this is not correct. I am using Virtual CloneDrive since 2004 and i havn´t had any issues with it.
There are no updates because there is nothing to update!

Let me repeat again:

"Virtual Clone Drive is not a viable solution as far as I am concerned". Look at the context in which it was written and you see that I have had issues. I am not sure why that is not correct. Furthermore, as I mentioned, Daemon Tools 4 has not caused any issues for me either, hence I use Daemon Tools 4 and not Virtual Clonedrive.

Although it is fine that you have been unaffected, there are also issues reported by others here https://forum.slysoft.com/showthrea...lone-Drive-refuses-to-mount-certain-ISO-files. Whether correct or not, there are users who have not had success with Virtual Clonedrive and I am sure others may have had issues with Daemon Tools too. No need to accuse them of lying.

No need to accuse them of lying.

Sorry for that, i didn´t want to accuse anybody.
But now i am out of this discussion.

I upgraded to latest version and I can confirm that daemon tools lite v10 (dtagent.exe) doesn't work with mediaportal properly.

I then rolled back to previous version and it works fine. I'm going to update the wiki

I have the Problem that some Images aren't mounted by VCD and the old daemon v4 which I used bevor upgrade to Win 10 isn't compatible to Win10 (can't install).

With DTlite there are allways PopUps when mounting, so unusable.

Has anybody Problems after upgrade to Win10, too?
Any Idea for a solution?
