    Hello,
    cdrtfe couldn't find my internal S-ATA burner. It took me half an hour or so to realize what's the problem. I assigned my DVD burner to the letter A: instead of the usual D:. cdrtfe immediately found the burner when I changed it to D:. But I'd rather have my HDD use D and let the burner have A.

    Could you somehow fix this pls? I'd really appreciate it. Or, if I'm the one making a mistake, please tell me what I did wrong.

    Or is this something that needs to be changed directly in cdrtools?

    Kind regards

    Hello,

    Or is this something that needs to be changed directly in cdrtools?

    indeed, the cdrtools, or more precisely the libscg (see cdrtools source files: scsi-wnt.c), leave out the drive letters A: and B: when scanning for devices. So, perhaps you should contact the cdrtools project.

    In the mean time, as a workaround, you can assign any other drive letter to your DVD burner, it does not have to be D:. On my systems the optical drives always start with drive letter X:, regardless how many HDDs are present.

    Regards,
    Oliver

    Thanks for your fast response.

    In that moment my view was too narrow to see that something other than D: might work. But If I think about it now, having it assigned to the letter X: (or smth similiar) is just as fine. I'll just stick with that.

    Thanks again for the help and all your work!
