VCDEASY not seeing my cdrw =(

[sleazy]

When i start up vcdeasy error pops up saying no cdrw drive found/aspi problems.I have a 24x tdk,if that helps.
I updated my aspi drivers,rebooted and still no luck.
Any1 know a fix to this...?
Thanks,
Sleazy`

Which ASPI are you using ? if it's 4.7 that would explain your problems, get only ASPI v4.6 Build 1021, and then go to the Settings in VCDEasy and enable CDRDao.

Where can i get ASPI v4.6 Build 1021 drivers?

Hey,thanks..everythings working fine now =)

[aceattorney]

I have a sony 8X CDRW drive and it's not being recognized either...I downloaded the ASPI v4.6 Build 1021 drivers and am running Windows XP.

I'm also using VCDeasy v. 1.9

Is there something I am doing wrong?

[Sefy]

aceattorney, does VCDEasy tell you anything about the ASPI ?

[aceattorney]

No GNU VCDImager
No CRDAO
No Mjpeg Tools
ASPI seems valid: No

(I noticed that ASPI said yes with the newer ASPI drivers)

[Sefy]

Sounds like you got VCDEasy without any of the internal components, so you need to basicly download the complete VCDEasy package, or go to the settings in VCDEasy and make sure each program leads to the correct path.

As for the ASPI Driver, i'd recommand you re-install it, I know the v4.6 work on all OS's as i've tried it myself, the 4.7 causes problems, even if will be detected, you'll end up losing alot of media due to bad recordings.

[aceattorney]

Right on, I downloaded the full package, and it allowed me to select my burner...but aspi still says no...I suppose I will try it anyway.

[Sefy]

Hmm.. I don't recommand it.
have you tried installing the ASPI Again ?

[aceattorney]

OK, it totally worked with the older ASPI drivers, and the full install of VCDEasy...thanks!

[Sefy]

Glad to hear that
Good Luck with your next projects!

Are the v4.6 Build 1021 drivers available at another location? I tried the link listed above but got a 404 error...

Thanks,

[Sefy]

Did you try here: http://www.whdl16709.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/download.html ?

[Craig Fuqua]

Yep. I tried it, too. 404 error. I'd also like a link if someone has one.

[Sefy]

Weird, try going here: http://www.clonead.co.uk/
and then go to the Latest Download section, see if that works.

[bick]

Thanks! I was able to get the 4.60 drivers at that link. If this works, you'll be my new personal hero. :)
