E_IMAPI_DF2TAO_RECORDER_NOT_SUPPORTED

E_IMAPI_DF2TAO_RECORDER_NOT_SUPPORTED means the physical recorder does not provide the operations required by IDiscFormat2TrackAtOnce. IMAPI exposes generic format support checks through IDiscFormat2 so recorder compatibility can be tested before starting the audio session.

Filter recorders by TAO format support

Record recorder vendor, product, revision and unique ID.
Use drive-support checks against the Track-at-Once format rather than assuming every CD-capable device supports the required write operations.
After choosing a supported recorder, separately verify that the inserted medium is blank CD-R or CD-RW.

This HRESULT is not an invalid-audio-stream result and cannot be repaired by converting the PCM data. It also differs from unsupported media: the device capability is the failing side of the recorder/media pair. Applications should preflight both independently and expose only valid combinations to the burn workflow.
