I have had this:
"Couldn't complete the last command because there was an I?O error (your disc may be copy protected). Result Code =-36." few times (or similar, can´t remember now).

It occurred when I tried to read the DVD-R via my external reader/burner, so I tried via iMac´s reader, and it worked fine.
I had one DVD-R that gave me similar error with external, and iMac didn´t even take the disc (I assume it´s because the DVD-R has "label" on it, never use labels, IMO..). I burned that from my work (via "disc utility"), and it worked.

Not much help I guess, but sometimes these burning-issues works in mysterious ways.

95% has been fine for me though, but I guess some readers just don´t like some certain discs or DVD-R media.

OT, but I have used "Verbatim" from the start, and it has been great. Then I used "TDK" one time, and it didn´t play good on my stand-alone DVD-player. If you find a good brand, stick to it, even if it´s not the cheapest one. IMO.

Also update your applications:

Toast 6.0.9
DVD2OneX 1.4.2
MTR 2.6.5

All are free updates.

I'd rebuild permissions and perhaps reinstall your applications. Sounds like you need to go through your whole system and softwaare and give it all a tuneup.

You might want to upgrade to Toast 6.0.9 as was pointed ut above. That solved a problem I had.
