actually it does work using Microsoft TweakUI (google it, it is part of Microsoft Powertoys).
Go to MY COMPUTER within TweakUI and select AUTOPLAY, then HANDLERS. Click on CREATE, Type in e.g.:
description: Backup with CloneDVD
using: CloneDVD
and using CHANGE PROGRAM... select the CloneDVD2.EXE program (default location may be: c:\program files\elaborate bytes\clonedvd2\clonedvd2.exe)
now check the Supported Media checkbox: DVD
and you are done. Now just reboot and from now on it will give you the option.
CAVIAT: The only small issue is that CloneDVD does not seem to allow any parameters, so you will have to select the drive with the DVD manually (as usual). But at least it starts the program and likely you only need to push the cursor down key to select your drive.
TIP: If you have other apps you do NOT want to use for autostarting DVD, just select that application here and UNCHECK DVD.

P.S.: CloneDVD Developers: Are you listening? EVERY other program without exception supports autoplay. It can not be so hard to implement that ...
