'No CD in Drive' message gets stuck
Hi guys,
I'm not sure if this has been brought up before or whether it's a Windows limitation or something, but here's the issue.
I had a project open that made use of a couple of drum samples off a CD. Like a tool I hadn't yet got 'round to copying the samples onto my hard drive, so REAPER was getting them straight from the CD. At some point I opened the CD drive. Then I right-clicked one of the audio samples in REAPER to access the Item Properties. At this point (or maybe I then clicked Item Properties at the bottom of the following dialog box, I don't remember), the error dialog shown in the screenshot below popped up.
When that dialog appeared, I could no longer progress. Clicking any of the 3 options presented by the dialog box simply returned the dialog box. Eventually the interface behind the dialog box was whited out as in the screenshot, and I had to force a close.
Obviously this can easily be avoided if people just avoid running samples off a CD (which is just good practice anyway), but it might catch a few people out if they aren't aware of this.
So yeah, just an FYI. Oh, and I hadn't made any changes to my project during that session, so happy days.
