Is the following an AnyDVD problem or a WinVista problem? I guess from the error message it is a Vista problem? Is there a fix or a work around?

I have just added an external Firewire 1T disk (Drive I) to my Vista Media Centre.

I have ripped a CD to the external drive with AnyDVD.
I have hacked the registry :-
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Settings\DvdSettings

Double-click the key ShowGallery and change the value from “Play” to “Gallery”.

so I can see and play the ripped the DVDs on my M/Centre.

if I then navigate to a ripped DVD I can play it after a fresh boot. If I then stop the playback then try to play the same or any other ripped DVD I get this error message:-

"DVD Error.
"Windows Media centre cannot play this DVD.
"Please restart windows Media Centre and insert the DVD again."

At other times when I try to play the DVDs the M/Centre does not respond.
