When burning DVD, I get an error message "No valid recording device could be found. Please check your connections and try again." Just before this error message and previous to it, I was able to burn DVD and my DVD recorder still works with other software. Please help.

You have supplied no information at all except "my car started yesterday but it won't start today"

What are you trying to burn: data, video audio?
What program suite are you using EMC 7,7.5,8,9,10 or Creator 2009?
What program from the suite are you using?
What are your system specs, what make/model of buringer?

Some information please before anyone can help blink.gif

I made a DVD (combination of slides (pictures) and video) using DVDit PRO HD without a problem. Then I edited the contents (took some pictures out and added some). When I tried to make a DVD from the edited file, I get an error message. On the pull down menu, I click "Burn", then "Burn Disc" and the following error message appears "No valid recording device could be found. Please check your connections and try again." Previously, I made quite a few DVD's without any problem. Suddenly this error message appears and I can't go any further. I thought I may have clicked on something, but I couldn't seem to find it, now I'm stuck (couldn't do anything except editing), please help.

I had been using DVDit Pro HD to burn DVD's (home video, slides - pictures with audio). I did not use other software/s for editing. Whatever is in DVDit Pro HD when opened, that's it.

One thing you can do till you figure out the problem, is to "write to volume" which basically writes the files to your hard drive. Then, you can use Nero or someother burning software to burn the disc. I always do this for either SD or HD projects so I can verify everything is working before burning.

I decided to uninstall the software and reinstall it and the problem is solved.
