I've got a quick question.

If I create a DVD using the maximum bit rate will this cause a problem in play back on some DVD players, probably older or cheaper models? If so is it a common problem?

I ask because I made a couple of DVD's for a friends Dad and to keep the image quality up I encoded it at the maximum bit rate. The picture and sound quality were both good but I got the warning message on DVD architect saying that it may not play in some players becuase of the high bit rate. Now he's had a few back but the number doesn't seem to worry him and frustratingly he's a bit vague as to the numbers. I offered to create him a lower bit rate version but he didn't seem to worried so I'm guessing it's not to much of an issue.
