RC1 Media Center - Unable to Burn DVDs

Having upgraded from Beta 2 to RC1, I note with disappointment/frustration
that Media Center's 'Burn DVD' option--which, prior to the upgrade, worked
perfectly--now refuses to launch. All burn commands now result in following
error message being displayed:

'Invalid Application - Unable to Launch Create CD/DVD - Disable Application?'

I attempted to resolve the issue by reinstalling the Sonic Encoder used in
XP MCE 2005, but to no avail (Vista's folder hierarchy for this application
is, unfortunately, entirely different to that used in XP).

Has anyone else encountered this difficulty and, if so, discovered a
workaround?

I have the free home edition on XP and Vista - no problems with any of the
builds. It seems to help if you turn off UAC and AV when installing. Right
click on .exe file and run as administrator. JMO
