The Media Center Sandbox

I have a program that is getting the disc data collections from GetDriveDiscData and GetSlotDiscData from the changer, but if these methods are called before the user has navigated to "Manage Discs" or "Program Library" (and waited about 10 seconds) the collections are returned empty or only partially filled.

How do I know when the collection has been filled completely?  Manage discs must do something like this, as if you try and go into it before the data has been populated, you get bounced back out straight away.

Cheers,
Andrew

I'm unsure of the answer to your question, but I own a Sony XL1B2 Changer, and would like code to change discs if possible. Can you private message me?

Thanks,

Rick

Rick,

You can do this using the MediaChanger API within Media Center.  Have a look in the MCE SDK and it will show you exactly how to do it - it's very easy providing you can write an add-in.

Cheers,
