What's wrong with using the system supplied panel?

Burn speeds are more dependent on media than the drive. They will only  
be returned when media is actually present in the drive.


If you don't mind the question, why do you think this is a good idea?  
Offering the user a choice of burn speeds is a very 90's thing to do,  
IMHO. Any drive made in the last half decade is virtually guaranteed  
to have burn underrun protection. Speed is no longer a direct causal  
factor in failed burns. Now, shoddy media quality... that is entirely  
a different matter, but again, speed has almost no bearing on it either.

Disc write speed options

I'm trying to figure out how I can ask a DRDevice what  burn speeds  
it's capable of so I can offer a choice to the user. When I call the  
status and info messages I don't see anything that looks useful. How  
can I get and set the burn rate ?


Thanks,
