E_IMAPI_DF2RAW_RECORDER_NOT_SUPPORTED
E_IMAPI_DF2RAW_RECORDER_NOT_SUPPORTED means the physical device cannot perform the operations required by IDiscFormat2RawCD. Raw Disc-at-Once support is a recorder capability question and should be checked independently from the type or blank state of the inserted medium.
Filter devices by raw-format support before preparation
- Record recorder vendor, product, revision and unique ID.
- Use IMAPI format support checks for the candidate recorder before presenting it as a raw-CD target.
- After selecting a supported recorder, separately validate current media and supported sector types.
Changing the raw image bytes cannot add a missing recorder capability. The error also differs from E_IMAPI_DF2RAW_MEDIA_IS_NOT_SUPPORTED: one identifies the device side of the pair and the other the inserted medium. Applications should preflight both and log them separately so a user is not told to replace media when the drive itself lacks DAO support.
