DiscCoasterPro Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Hello, and thanks in advance for the help. After installing Image Burn and muddling through its various abilities, I still seem to be having one problem at this point that I can't figure out, I hope you can help. Image burn starts up and launches it's window whenever I put in a blank DVD or a burned DVD. It also launched a few times with a commercial DVD movie that I was planning on watching. I looked at the startup list via SEARCH (windows vista) then MSCONFIG and I don't see any entry that is set to have Image burn running in the background. I opened Image Burn and looked at the SETTINGS option and when I saw the "AUTO INSERT NOTIFICATION" tick box under the DEVICE tab, I thought I'd found the setting causing this. However, when I clicked on it, an Image Burn message box opened and told me that this was a windows setting and had nothing to do with Image Burn. I'm unable to find a setting that would prevent ONLY Image Burn from launching when I put a DVD in, I don't want to prevent Windows from recognizing a DVD by disabling its AUTORUN feature. Thanks again for the help
mmalves Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Using Windows Explorer/My Computer, right-click on your drive and go to the AutoPlay tab: in there you can set your AutoPlay preferences.
DiscCoasterPro Posted June 30, 2009 Author Posted June 30, 2009 Using Windows Explorer/My Computer, right-click on your drive and go to the AutoPlay tab: in there you can set your AutoPlay preferences. Using Vista I couldn't find the setting with my computer, however in the help and support area I searched for autoplay, and I found its list of options. Image Burn was in fact set as a default when a DVD was installed. I changed this to "Always Ask" and it seems fine now. thanks very much for your speedy and accurate reply!!!
LIGHTNING UK! Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Yeah, in Vista you have to pick 'AutoPlay' from within Control Panel.
DiscCoasterPro Posted July 8, 2009 Author Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Hello again. Although the instructions offered did cure the problem with imgburn auto running for the next use, it seems that some setting in that program is changing my auto play preferences because it reverts back to opening Imgburn and I have to reset it over and over. Is there a setting in Imgburn that stops this program from wanting to overwrite my auto play preferences? thanks Edited July 8, 2009 by DiscCoasterPro
LIGHTNING UK! Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 All the stuff like that is on the Registry tab in the settings. ImgBurn only adds itself as an 'option' though, it doesn't make itself the default one... that's something the user has to do (unless the OS does it for you for some reason).
