    Hi dvdlaw
    What media are you using? How about the burn speed?

    Is your drives firmware up to date too?
    All can play a factor.

    You can check the firmware version in Nero (see below)

    That is probably the layerbreak for the Movie if u r using DL media,
    It could be the media and it could be the program u r using to burn, my bet is the Media u r using.

    Verbatim DL media is the best and u should try those, for better results.

    U can however try burning with ImgBurn to see if it still freezes which is known for good DL burning. heres a link
    http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download

    Heres a guide too for DL burning with Imgburn for the build mode(if it is an ISO file than just burn using Mode/Write)

    I agree w/ 300bowler. I didn't even know Staples was putting their name on DL media. (not like I know all about every brand - this is a new one to me)

    If it's -R also - that's pretty new dual layer media. Players may definitely have a problem reading it correctly.

    What's the make & model of the burner too?

    I'd also go w/ 300bowler suggestion of using imgburn too to burn these.

    Burn speed using? If you can try taking it down a notch too.
