I almost forgot to mention a long standing issue when users specify to use an external player AND the default source filter is A2DSource...

(I stumbled upon this issue after recommending to use an external player to users who could not get the internal preview working.)

When A2DSource is selected then the AviSynthP.avs script loads A2DSource.avsi from the "AVStoDVD\Lib" folder. But AviSynthP.avs is called while the active folder is "C:\Windows". This means that A2DSource.avsi is not executed correctly, so the external player will either not work at all, or there will be no audio. Including the Lib folder in the Path does not fix it.

The current workaround is to use DirectShowSource or FFMS2 instead of A2DSource. To fix the issue completely AVStoDVD would need to make the Lib folder the active folder before calling the preview.
