DVD burning problem: Unable to lock volume

[ktownballa00]

Hi,

I am having problems with ImgBurn & DVD Decrypter. I created the ISO with DVDFab and am trying to now burn the file to a disc. The error i keep recieving at the very beginning of the burning process is:

DeviceIoControl(FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME) Failed!

Device [4:0:0] LITE ON DVDRW SOHW-1633S (E:) (ATA)

Unable to lock volume for exclusive access.

Reason: Access is denied.

I've tried buying different dvd's but still nothing. The movie i am trying to burn is; Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix. Any help on how to correct this :thanks:

I believe there's a setting in DVD Decrypter's options to not lock the drive.

Otherwise, other tools like DVD Shrink will work (just make sure to set it to No Compression and Full Backup.

Hi!

Have you tried simply rebooting (cold start) your system?

Thanks for both of your replies but im still getting an I/O error stating: Failed to reserve track, No more track reservations allowed. Any ideas?

Did you try DVD Shrink with No Compression yet?

[ktownballa00]

Trying it now but it seems to be stuck on 2% encoding.

Are you using DVD+R or DVD-R

In the settings>Write area there is a box asking whether to reserve track. Make sure it is NOT checked.
