Version
What version are you using?

  • Stable release 2.
  • WIP release (version here)

Build
What runtime version are you using?

  • .NET Framework 4.7.2 running on (Operating System)
  • .NET Framework 4.8 running on Windows 10
  • .NET Core 3.1 running on (Operating System)

Describe the issue
When an OG Xbox (or 360) disc is inserted into a Kreon drive running externally via my SATA->IDE converter, the tool defaults to DVD-VIDEO, with the error Error in detecting media type: IMAPI2 recorder not supported.

This also occurs in the WIP .NET 4.8 version.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Insert the disc
  2. Launch MPF
  3. Observe the terminal
    (NOTE, inserting disc OR pressing "Scan for Discs" both perform the same action)

Expected behavior
MPF selects type Xbox.

As this came up before, the IMAPI2 thing is something I can't work around until I move to another library for detection. However, I can have it check for SEP13011042 as the name for an XBOX disc.
