Re: AW: Re: AW: Virtual Clone Drive can not mount DVD-ISO anymore

...C:\program files\VirtualCloneDrive\daemon.exe
That was the key. Somehow I was using the wrong exe (vcdmount.exe). :D

Glad to help.

Well, it is wrong for Mediaportal, Because vcdmount.exe is better than daemon.exe. With vcdmount you only need pass it the path of the iso. No need to pass drive letter or number.

This why you are getting the error; something like VDC can't mount 0,<path of your iso>.

I have found and reproduced this problem. I also think I found how to fix it.

My Setup(With the older version of VirtualCloneDrive):
<section name="daemon">
<entry name="enabled">yes</entry>
<entry name="path">C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe</entry>
<entry name="extensions">.cue, .bin, .iso, .ccd, .bwt, .mds, .cdi, .nrg, .pdi, .b5t, .img</entry>
<entry name="driveNo">0</entry>
<entry name="askbeforeplaying">yes</entry>
<entry name="drive">G:</entry>
</section>


To Reproduce:
Open Media Portal (1.1.3.0)
Browse to Moving Pictures
Open an ISO file (May Error Here)
Allow DVD to reach menu
Hit Stop Key (May Error Here )

Errors with "Unable to mount 0,path/to/dvd.iso!"

I believe the fix should be as simple as modifying the command to add a space after the "0," or remove the comma altogether and just use a space

PREVIOUS COMMAND:
"C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe 0,path/to/dvd.iso"

NEW COMMAND: v (Space Added)
"C:\Program Files\Elaborate Bytes\VirtualCloneDrive\VCDMount.exe 0, path/to/dvd.iso"


Also, downloading the latest version of virtualCloneDrive from Slysoft fixed the issue as well

    AW: Virtual Clone Drive can not mount DVD-ISO anymore

    Hello,

    I still have a problem with "Mounting failed (timed out)." : Sometimes it works, most of the Time not.

    Code:
    2011-05-21 23:41:07.757200 [Debug][FileExistsCache Thread(7)]: FileExistsCacheThread: no more items to cache, suspending thread.: 2
    2011-05-21 23:41:08.301200 [Info.][MPMain(1)]: Start process VCDDaemon.exe -mount[COLOR="Red"][B] 0,"H[/B][/COLOR]:\Filme\Rapunzel - Neu verföhnt (2010).iso"

    2011-05-21 23:41:18.344200 [Info.][MPMain(1)]: Mounting failed (timed out). Recheck your settings.

    I installed VCD 5.4.5 but still have the problems. With VCDMount.exee still the error popup "Can't mount ... mount 0,"H:\Film... ".
    MP Config seems also be ok, otherwise it wouldn't work anytime.

    Has anybody an idea what can I do / check to get rid of this? :(

    vcdmount does not work because MediaPortal passes the commands -umount and -mount VCDmount needs /u to unmount a drive and just the filename to mount. The command with drive identification should be:

    vcdmount /l=<drive name> isofilenmae
    for example on my system
    vcdmount /l=k /u <-- To unmount
    vcdmount /l=k m:\iso\kung_fu_panda_ac.dvd works.

    I have not discovered where to change this in MediaPortal, maybe someone can guide me. Could it be in an xml file?

    OK, I found a way to make it work.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
