    I have burned three different wedding videos for 3 different friends.
    I use Adobe Premier 2.0 to burn on a Dell xps M170 computer.
    I have previewed the 3 different wedding videos on my computer, on a Sony, toshiba and Panasonic dvd player - they all work perfectly.

    All 3 of my friends say that the dvds skip, pixelate in spots, and stop near the end of the video. When I play them they work perfectly.

    I just used a bitrate viewer on them and they are all higher than 5.7 mb/sec. I've used Nero's cd-dvd scans and the color scan comes up perfect. The benchmark graph scan comes up with some peaks in it.

    I have just had a firmware upgrade on my computer and Dell is sending me a new computer so I don't want to burn any new copies yet.

    When I burn the new dvds I will make sure they're burnt at 5mb/sec

    Is there anything else that could be causing this issue?

    What was the speed, at which you burned the DVDs? Anything over 8X, is a crap shoot for some set top DVD players.

    What is the fastest way to find the write speed?
