Hi there,
Cheap Media and burned too fast will cause playback problems like this.
What brand of media do you use ? (What's the MEDIA ID) ?
VSO Inspector v1.1 can provide that to you !
What speed are you burning at ?
I burn all my stuff at 2x, or 4x MAX on Taiyo Yuden.
My 2 cents...

hello and now for my 2 pence worth ,
i also use clonedvd2 with a prog called AnyDVD running in the background and so far so good .
i also use ritek , ridisc and ridata blank media , ive found these discs to be 100% reliable when playing in dvd players :o)
ive tried datawrite , bulkpaq , white label etc......... ive found these discs to be cheap and unreliable when playing in dvd players .
stick with the programs your using for burning dvds but try getting hold of some good quality discs , it should solve any probs .
happy burning , woof :o)

If you're in the U.S., Sams Club has printable Verbatim dvd+r's at 100 for about $40.00. www.supermediastore.com is a good online source for quality disks.

I haven't bought any yet, but it just says printable so I assume they're not hub printable. For that price, that's ok. I was surprised how little difference it made to me, considering how neurotic I can be about such things. :-)

If your backup freezes, stutters, skips, or has some pixelation, it is more than likely due to poor quality media being used. Cheap media is poorly manufactured around the edge of the disc, hence the reason why it mostly skips or freezes from the middle toward the end of the movie. The two main things to consider first are:
1. Is it cheap media that you are using? (ie. some off brand you bought at a local computer store/fair, even a store like Circuit City or Best Buy sells cheap low quality media.)
2. How fast are you burning? - Burn no faster than 4X, might have to go down to 2X with really cheap media.
Also, are you using adhesive labels on your back ups? If so, try removing the labels (if you can) and playing them again. Go here for more info on why not to use labels. - http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=28604
You can go here for some other possible solutions: http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44912
Also try lowering outcome the "Target DVD size".
Open DVD Shrink. Click "Edit", then "Preferences". On the first tab at the top in the drop down box, change it from "DVD-5 (4.7GB) to "Custom" and enter a number of 4200MB (4464MB is burning to the edge of the disc, you want to stay away from the edge as the edge of cheap media (disc's) are poorly manufactured).
