read date and time of recording of the dvd

[BrettF]

I take it you want some sort of copyright protection on a disk?

Maybe explain fully what you are doing, and we could work out a way to do it >_<

'm customizing a DVD of Windows 7 ...

added a startup command in the DVD for it to execute a program ...

wanted this program to date verificase DVD burning or real serial number of dvd ...

so difficult to copy the same ...

because this is a custom dvd hard work of my company, so the officials could not do anything anywhere.

someone has more ideas to help me?

Not an ideal or guaranteed solution but you could compare the media ID of the disk being used against the original disk using a 3rd party app like Imgburn or something similar.

Using Imgburn as an example you could do something like:

#Include <string.au3>

$ORIG_ID = 'Media ID of your disk' ; 'YUDEN000-T03-00'
$Source_Drive = ; Your prefered method of getting the DVD drive letter.
$Imgburn_Path = $Source_Drive & '\Path\To\Imgburn.exe'
$File = 'C:\DVD_Info.txt' ; Temp file

RunWait($Imgburn_Path & ' /MODE READ /SRC ' & $Source_Drive & ' /INFO "' & $File & '" /CLOSEINFO', "", @SW_HIDE)

$hFile = FileOpen($File, 0)

If $hFile = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

$Read = FileRead($hFile)

;Parse the file for the media ID of the disk being used
$DVD_ID = _StringBetween($Read, 'Disc ID: ', @CRLF)
FileClose($hFile)
FileDelete($File)

;Check the media ID against the original
If $DVD_ID[0] <> $ORIG_ID Then
    _Pirate()
EndIf

Func _Pirate()
    MsgBox(262160, "", "This is not an original disk.")
    ; do your stuff
EndFunc

Somebody making a copy could be using the same media as your company, but I would imagine the chances are quite slim.

'll be experimenting with this script of yours ...

ImgBurn not run in winpe environment

[WolfWorld]

$Source_Drive = ; Your prefered method of getting the DVD drive letter.

ok

problem solved ...

someone here know any other program similar to imgburn ....

so I can use it to read media reports dvd

[bolthead]

There are other programs that will read the media ID from a disk, but I don’t know of one that accepts command line arguments.

A couple are:

ADVDInfo (you will need wnaspi32.dll in the same folder for it to work).

DVD Identifier.

They are both GUI only apps that require user input so you will need to use ControlGetText, ControlRead, etc.. to do what you want.

How is using Imgburn failing for you?
