The standard code outputs m_RealDevice (m_DeviceModel).

m_VolumeID is only used later, when we know what media is mounted in  
that device.
I suspect the strings like '\\.\{8213csad-3422dda-etc}' could be used  
for m_KeyID.
m_VolumeID would be something like "Audio CD" or "THEITALIANJOB2006".



P.S. I assume you have patches for other media monitor parts?
At the moment for me, the standard code does:

2009-08-13 14:48:24.703 Creating MediaMonitor, SendEvents=false
2009-08-13 14:48:24.703 IgnoreDevices=
2009-08-13 14:48:24.734 Error. Couldn't create MythMediaDevice.

2009-08-13 14:48:24.750 performMountCmd() attempted to find mounted  
media, but failed?
