readonly attribute wstring IHostDVDDrive::name

Returns the platform-specific device identifier.

On DOS-like platforms, it is a drive name (e.g. R:). On Unix-like platforms, it is a device name (e.g. /dev/hdc).

readonly attribute wstring IHostDVDDrive::description

Returns a human readable description for the drive.

This description usually contains the product and vendor name. A null string is returned if the description is not available.

readonly attribute wstring IHostDVDDrive::udi

Returns the unique device identifier for the drive.

This attribute is reserved for future use instead of name. Currently it is not used and may return null on some platforms.
