Produced my showreel on iDVD and have been sending it out to clients. Two or three have reported problems trying to play it on computers. This has happened on both Macs and PCs, although all have said it plays fine on thier home DVD players through a TV.
Is this a common problem ? Could it be the DVD-R discs I've been using ?
Had been using Apple discs then switched to TDK, and have recently gone back to Apple discs to test this theory out.

I had the same problem on my idvd but it only happened the once just check the settings and make sure the discs are spotless before copying any fingerprints,dust can make the disc recordable but unreadable.
Also try and record on a different setting i.e if its smaller than 60 minutes best performance if its longer best quality
I think the change in discs may have had something to do with it aswell.
hope everything sorts itself out,it usually does!!!
Good luck Scott.
