| Hi All,
| 
| Just trying to set up a PVR type device and would like to throw in a
| feature to detect what media (if any) is inserted into the DVD burner.

[snip]

| How would I go about checking the media if it's a blank, non-blank or RW
| disk?
| 
| C or C++ code would be great.


I don't have a DVD burner, but, the following chunk of code serves me fairly
well for my atapi DVD and CD drives. SCSI drives have a different API to ATA
ones, so this may not work for SCSI or ATAPICAM devices. There's some debug in
there that could go, but, it might help you so I left it in. It compiles under
-current.

It's also based on empircal loading of different media types I have lying
around, so YMMV w.r.t to detection d8)

returns 0 for NO DISK
returns 1 for Audio or Audio + Copy Protection/Data.
returns 2 for Data
returns 3 for Unknown (something is loaded, but, we don't know what).
