I get this message when using dvdd to put vids on the hdd and then shrink to encode, and dvdd to burn...
"Device Io Control(FSCTL_LOCK_VOLUME)failed
Unable to lock volume for execsive access
Reason: Access is denied"
All I have to do is click the ignore option, but it would be nice to be able to just walk away and not have to wait to click.....
Could this be due to the video ts file on an External HDD????
Thanks for all the help!

This is a stretch but check and see if you have any packet writing software like InCD or something of that nature running. I seem to remember that is the error you would get. Some other program is trying to access your system resources at the same time.
Don't know if this is of any help but it is from Digital Digest and it is there info and solution on your error.

Solution:
Some other application has got a hold of your drive, shut down any other burning software, if you have InCd installed, piss it off, or any other packet writing software, make sure you've only got one instance DVDD open at a time, if you can't find any of the above, and you're running XP, stop / shutdown the 'IMAPI' service
If the 'Reason' given is 'Invalid function' (or words to that effect)
You need to update your IDE drivers. Your current ones are old and don't support this IMPORTANT feature.
If the 'Reason' given is 'Access is denied' (or words to that effect)
Another program is currently using the drive. You need to find out what it is and shut it down!
The only way I know of finding out what else has a 'handle' open to the drive is by using Process Explorer from www.sysinternals.com
Load it up and click 'Find' -> 'Find Handle...'
The type 'cdrom' and click 'search'
See if it comes up with any results
If it doesnt, try searching for the drive letter of that drive - i.e. 'F:'
If it finds something, click on it in the search window. The main window should then highlight the process / 'File' entry that contains the handle to the drive. You can right click -> close the handle if you like, or just close the entire application, it's up to you.
You may also get error 'Unknown (34)' sometimes. Cancel the burn, press F5 and then attempt to write it again. It's just windows going mad, nothing to worry about
Hey thanks for the link to the process explorer!
That things pretty sweet!
Well I still didn't see much that would be holding my drive up, so I'm gonna try putting the file images on the internal c drive, so maby that'll be more readly accessable.
Again thanks for all the help and quick responces!
