Remarks

In order to write any media to either an .ISO file or disc, you must use the CreateDisc Method to create a MediaWriterDisc object. The MediaWriterDisc object describes the current disc, and allows you to set the write information for the disc (source file, volume name, etc). For more information, see the MediaWriterDisc Class.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family
