Error message: The burner is busy with another application
Error message: The burner is busy with another application
I have Videostudio 2019. I am unable to burn a project to a DVD. I consistently get the following message: "The burner is busy with another application." I have not received any help from Corel on this and I was wondering if any of you might have either experienced the same problem or have come up with a solution. I am running windows 10 with 12 GB of memory and have tried it on two DVD drives with no success. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Error message: The burner is busy with another application
Hi
And welcome to the forums
Many years ago Nero use a piece of software to backup data to disc, I forget the name of that but it had the effect of taking control of the DVD Drive, other programs showed a similar message.
All I can suggest is to check which programs you have running in the background.
When you insert a disc does that boot up a program to run / play the disc?
You could of course try re-installing 2019, I would use Program and features followed by the cleanup tool to uninstall. I assume Corel have already suggested that.

Thank you. I will try that.
Re: Error message: The burner is busy with another application
With regards to your question whether the disc will automatically run a program when one is installed, the answer is no, it does not. It's the same for a movie. Thanks again for your help.

I just installed Video Studio Ultimate 2020 and purchased the blu ray burning add-on patch. after putting together a trial video to burn on a 25 g BD-R disk, I got the dreaded "the burner is busy for another application". I await a solution.

Re: Error message: The burner is busy with another application
There are a few programs that use the DVD, windows explorer being one of them. And if there is no other app program that uses the DVD then I suggest a query to Microsoft and the DVD supplier for at least a cause, and preferably a solution.
