Default External CD Drive/Burner

I am unable to burn a cd from Reapers timeline using the normal render/burn procedures. Reaper will not burn from my new Dell external USB drive. It shows up in the this PC portion of Windows and also in the drop down menu under Native CD in the render/burn window of Reaper. I have burned a cd with Vegas Edit Pro 14 no problem when selecting this drive. I have tried using different USB ports, Re-starting Reaper but no go . The Error I get is "Cannot Set CD Recorder". I also was able to burn a CD from the rendered image file in the project folder using Nero 2017 and it played back fine without errors. Frustrating as I use this feature a lot. And I am able to burn CD's from my Dell XPS internal drive with no issues. It is just the new external drive that will not work with Reaper.

Hi.
Do you have a different or older computer you could try that external drive in just for a test to see if it works on a older rig?

I do have an older computer but it does not have Reaper on it. It is an old 32bit XP machine. The burner works with my new machine fine with Vegas Edit Pro 14 and Nero 2017. Just not Reaper.

It may be worth a try to put Reaper on that older machine just to see if it works for a test, then if it does the same thing, that would confirm that it's possibly a Reaper bug.

Edit:
Or for a test, do a portable install of Reaper, and try that.
