Sound to me like the MPEG encoder used in Power Director is "pants".

Almost as strange as a talking sponge. Wearing pants.

Some of these problems come from burning your copy at the max speed of the dvd burner try burning your copy or master at a lower speed,

not necessarily, skycowboy.

the drive's having trouble reading the disc, but it's more likely to be a media compatibility issue.

What brands of dvdr were tried?

I tried Verbatim and Memorex. I even lowed the recording speed to the lowest it can go. The Verbatim was DVD+R and the Memorex was DVD-R. I tried everything that's typical with trouble shooting. Strange eh?

have you tried something with ritek or fuji dye? They tend to be the best, compatibility-wise.
