I'm trying to add video to Cubase (SX 3) and once its done loading I get this error message:

"Can not play video file.
Code: 0x80070020
The Process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process"

I've added video plenty of times. I have no other applications running. What. The. Fuck?

Something is obviously accessing the video for some reason. Make sure you ctrl alt delete any possible programs taht could be running or even looking at the video.

If that doesn't work log out and log back in, (don't need to reset the comp) and give it a shot again.

I figured it out. It was a pretty simple solution but it wasn't very obvious and it had nothing to do with other programs. That error message was very misleading. Thanks anyways.

Darko,

Hi, I was looking online for the solution to the Cubase video error:

Can not play video file.
Code: 0x80070020
The Process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process"

What was the solution? I've tried a ton of things but still get the error.

Thanks in advance,

mnand.

Hmmm, try going to: Devices > Device Set up > Video Player > and selecting "Quicktime Video" as the playback method. Let me know if that works. If it doesn't the first time, try restarting.
