NS_E_WMP_FILE_DOES_NOT_FIT_ON_CD
Practical scope of NS_E_WMP_FILE_DOES_NOT_FIT_ON_CD
This HRESULT is produced at comparing the prepared item size or duration with writable disc capacity. This result belongs to cd/dvd recording and imapi state, not to an undifferentiated “Windows Media problem.”
Pipeline position
A recorder that enumerates can still be busy, incompatible with the inserted medium or unable to sustain the selected write operation. In a typical failing run, one large item exceeds the remaining sectors even before the write begins.
Reproduction record
| Evidence | Why it matters for file does not fit on cd |
|---|---|
| Producing object and operation | recorder unique ID and exclusive-access owner, inserted media profile/state, burn format, playlist item, source locality, duration/byte estimate, staging directory free space, write speed, current IMAPI action and underlying HRESULT |
| Key observation | media capacity, selected burn format, item estimate, lead-in/out overhead and remaining space |
| Controlled comparison | Repeat the producing call after changing only this condition: remove or shorten items, or use compatible media with sufficient capacity. |
Verification procedure
- Capture
0xC00D10D8, the exact Player/API operation and the first timestamp at which it appears. - Save media capacity, selected burn format, item estimate, lead-in/out overhead and remaining space; do this before ejecting media, reconnecting a device, canceling a job or rebuilding the Player object.
- Correlate the result with recorder unique ID and exclusive-access owner, inserted media profile/state, burn format, playlist item, source locality, duration/byte estimate, staging directory free space, write speed, current IMAPI action and underlying HRESULT.
- Reproduce once with the original source and destination, then apply only this change: remove or shorten items, or use compatible media with sufficient capacity.

Change the smallest responsible condition
The targeted action is to remove or shorten items, or use compatible media with sufficient capacity. While retesting it, keep unrelated media, device, playlist and network values unchanged.
During verification, do not repeatedly start a new burn against a drive that still owns or finalizes the previous session; capture the media state and recorder owner before ejecting or replacing the disc.
