    I have converted DivX movie to DVD format(vob),
    after burning and putting DVD into my PS2 the movie appears twitchy, every 2 second it stops for about 0.5 second and then plays again.
    Do you know why it happens so? Can it be that my DVD disc is damaged
    or bad written? I have tried to play movie on PC with PoverDVD and it plays fine.

    Regards,
    Tom

    Yes my PS2 have a chip - Messiah 1. The hardware is new and all DVD plays fine except one which I have converted from DivX (with WinAVI Video Converter program) to DVD.

    From another forum I have got the asnwer
    ---------
    Could be the conversion wasnt right. When converting to DVD-5 do make sure your not hogging resources by doing
    other things such as playing games or listening to mp3's etc.
    --------

    Maybe this is the problem?

    yeah, either a bad conversion or bad media (which brand did you use?).

    no, cheap dvds just suck. Movies don't work very well on them, as you have seen.
