Using EITHER my Sony VCR/DVD Recorder Combo or my Panasonic VCR/DVD Recorder Combo to record to a DVD-R media when I try to play the DVD on my Windows XP machine the otherwise unprotected disc with AnyDVD active I get the following error and AnyDVD crashes: Event Type: Error Event Source: Application Error Event Category: None Event ID: 1000 Date: 5-21-2007 Time: 7:36:23 AM User: N/A Computer: SCHJA01-XP Description: Faulting application anydvd.exe, version 6.1.5.4, faulting module anydvd.exe, version 6.1.5.4, fault address 0x0002d6b7.

Additionally, if I try to run the DVD through CloneDVD2 after disabling AnyDVD it craps out with a "Invalid Start Block ID" error and dies. The recording does play on hardware DVD players and PCs without AnyDVD but I need to disable AnyDVD on my PC to play the DVD recording.
Anydvd is intended for use with officially released commercial dvds and not dvds created from standalone dvd recorders.
