[Bug 14392] New: Starcraft: Does not recognize CD when it is mounted using fuseiso

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14392

Summary: Starcraft: Does not recognize CD when it is mounted
                    using fuseiso
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0.0
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

(Note: I am aware that Starcraft can now be run without a CD, but I imagine
this issue affects other programs [though not all! see below] so I am
submitting it anyway)

When I loop-mount the Starcraft CD with the normal mount method (superuser
required!) everything works fine. However if I instead use fuseiso
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/fuseiso/) the game complains about missing
the CD. Both were tested being mounted to the same directory, and confirmed
that in each case the files on CD were accessible through the same "dosdevice".

Clues:
- The regularly mounted image appears as type "iso9660" in /etc/mtab, while
with fuseiso it is type "fuse.fuseiso"
- in the Wine file browser the regularly mounted image as type "CDFS", while
the fuseiso mount as type "NTFS"
- The Rosetta Stone language software is happy with images mounted either way.

It seems that (1) Starcraft does something (perhaps simply a sanity/security
check) with the disk beyond simply accessing the files, and (2) Wine does not
recognize fuseiso mounts as being CDs. Whether this because fuseiso doesn't
provide some feature/aspect of the iso9660 mount, or just because Wine is
checking for the iso9660 fs type, I don't know.

Does changing the drive type in winecfg have any effect?

In both cases it is the same entry in winecfg, type CD-ROM, pointed to
~/.wine/isomount. Apparently Wine is detecting the drive type in some other
way? See /dlls/kernel32/volume.c:550 or so. The code is sadly a bit
overwhelming for me, without having had any experience hacking on it, otherwise
I might be able to understand the issue better.

You have to have real CD. Closing invalid. Any ways that circumvent copy
protection are not supported.

eh? All right, fair enough. Though for the record, SC really doesn't use
CD-based copy protection, and I am still of the opinion that the current
behavior is lacking.

Closing.
