I have an iso image of a movie and it's about 4.5 gig. When I burn this image onto DVD it plays fine on my PC. However, on my Toshiba standalone player, the movie plays jerky. Basically, it pauses for a millisecond every second or so.
Is it something in the way I'm burning the disc? I've tried a few different ways: burning it with Nero Burning ROM (DVD Image), extracting the ISO and burning the files with NERO Express, using MagicISO, etc. I've tried burning it with two different DVD burners on my machine, but I get the same results no matter what.
I swear I had this problem once before and there was some way of burning that kept this from happening. If anyone can PLEASE give me some advice other than trying a different media type, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your help.
I'm using an external LG burner. I've attached the DISCInfo summary below. In terms of the dvd, I've tried burning at 6X and it give me the same performance as if I burned it at the max speed. I'm burning to the whole disc. The ISO is about 4.6 gig. Thanks for your help.

If you use DVD-R discs try burning on a DVD+R disc (or the other way
around if you use +discs. Through the years on several different
standalone DVD players I have found that this solves the problem.
It can be absolutely infuriating to try and watch a movie when it is
doing that.
Ok..I've got an update. After thinking about all the other movies I've burned and they work fin (home movies, etc.), I went ahead and created an ISO image of a DVD I had. I burned that ISO and it plays fine. So, it looks like it must be something with the ISO image I have.
Does anyone have any ideas what might cause this to happen in the ISO itself? Do I need to burn it a different way or edit it in some way? I just don't understand why it would play fine on my pc drive, but not on the stand-alone. If I can fix the ISO, great! If not, I'll just try to get a different ISO of the movie. Thanks again.
Ok, last update. I believe the ISO image I have is a PAL image. I'm assuming that would be a problem. I'm sorry I didn't notice this before. I apologize for the silly overlook. If that wouldn't cause this kind of problem, please let me know, but I have a feeling that's all it is. Thanks again for everyone's help
