Ibbsnanny, I think this is probably the wrong forum for the question. There is a Mac video forum here:

http://forums.afterdawn.com/forum_view.cfm/56

The error sounds like one generated as a result of copy protection on the disk. See this:

http://macosx.com/content/faq.php/q5825/Mac-the-Ripper-Bad-Sector...

As for a burned disk not playing in your players, this happens on the PC side as well as the most common causes are:

1. using poor quality blank media
2. burning at too fast a speed (limit to 1/2 or less the rated speed of the media. I like 4X most of the time).
3. out of date burner firmware.
