Hi,
I burned a movie onto DVD with my MacBook using iDVD. During playback in a DVD player, I encountered a couple instances of stuttering during the movie.

Here are some details:
- used a Memorex DVD-R 16x 4.7 GB 120 min as media
- used iDVD to create a simple intro and then burned
- during burn, I did do some internet surfing (I don't know if that would have an effect or not)

After encountering the stuttering, I'm wondering if I need to change the media (is there something better than the parameters on the Memorex DVD-R that would be better for playback)? Or, do I abandon iDVD and get Roxio Toast or Roxio Creator or a different 3rd party piece of software for burning?

Any feedback would be appreciated. I'm new to the MacBook (and DELIGHTED with it) and new to burning DVDs, so pardon any simplicity in the questions.

Thanks so much.
