AnyTool beta available
AnyTool (what a stupid name) can be downloaded here:
http://sandbox.slysoft.com/AnyTool.zip It is a very small command line tool, which basically does what you wanted. Usage: AnyTool -d Disables AnyDVD for all drives Will wait for the command to execute EDIT: Will timeout after 10 seconds, if it somehow didn't work. AnyTool -e Enables AnyDVD for all drives Warning, will return immediately Should work with all recent AnyDVD & AnyDVD HD versions 6.x EDIT: Which is very nice, as you can expect all customers to have a version supported by AnyTool. It might even work with older versions, but I haven't tried or checked or cared or whatever...

As AnyTool is not distributed with AnyDVD, you can copy it to your program's directory. So you don't need to use ShellExecuteEx, you can use CreateProcess instead, which might be a little more straightforward. It is recommended to wait for AnyTool to complete. Do this by calling a WaitFor...() function on the AnyTool process handle. Again, opening the optical drives (regardless how, SPTI, FileSystem, ...) before using AnyTool is a stupid idea.  Of course you don't know if a user has files open on the disc, but at least your application shouldn't.

DISCLAIMER: AnyTool is a quick hack. It is a kludge. It is a beta. It solves the problem, but it does it with a "hacky" approach, so it works with all recent versions of AnyDVD and the current AnyDVD HD beta. Although unlikely, it is possible that it might no longer work with future versions of AnyDVD (HD). I intend to update both AnyTool and AnyDVD (HD) so they can communicate better. At the moment AnyTool patches AnyDVD's registry settings, so you should not use AnyTool to disable AnyDVD without re-enabling it again, as this might p*ss off the user (AnyDVD would stay disabled even after a reboot). In general, I would not recommend to ship the current version of AnyTool with commercial products to users. The current version is for developers to take a look and provide feedback. I would wait for a final mature release before using it with commercial products.
