[rich2010]

when i try to record a video to a disc drive it says the location has read-only attributes please remove the write protection or select anther location....

 

how do you turn off the write protection when using roxio vhs to dvd program.......any other programs i use i have no problems writing to a disk

 

thank you

You cannot save to Disc (Optical media), you have to save to a Disk (magnetic media) drive.

 

Internal HDD is preferred but externals should work.

not sure what a magnetic media drive is,,,,but i did save it to a folder and it turn out to be an avi file.

Your hard drive is a "magnetic drive".

How did you save it to a folder if your drive is supposedly write protected?

Soooo… Where are we at, at this point?

 

Do you still have a problem? If so what is it?
