IOCTL_CDROM_ENABLE_STREAMING IOCTL (ntddcdrm.h)
Enables or disables CDROM streaming mode on a per-handle basis for raw read and write requests.
To perform this operation, call the DeviceIoControl function and specify the IOCTL_CDROM_ENABLE_STREAMING I/O control request as the dwIoControlCode parameter.
Major code
Input buffer
Input buffer length
Length of a CDROM_STREAMING_CONTROL.
Output buffer
None.
Output buffer length
None.
Status block
The Information field is set to the number of bytes returned.
Because of status code propagation from other APIs, the Status field can be set to (but not limited to) the following:
STATUS_INFO_LENGTH_MISMATCH
The input buffer length is smaller than required.
STATUS_INVALID_DEVICE_REQUEST
The requested streaming mode is not supported.
STATUS_INVALID_HANDLE
Cannot find the file object context in the request.
STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER
The request type is not one of the four in types defined in the STREAMING_CONTROL_REQUEST_TYPE enumeration.
STATUS_SUCCESS
The request completed successfully.
Remarks
By default, streaming is disabled for all newly opened raw CDROM handles. A playback application that does not want to use the file system and prefers to work with raw data should open two file handles for the same device: a regular one for file system metadata and a streaming one for real-time files.
