I came here to find the solution to a similar problem.
I have three DVD productions, created in PD365/18, and burned in small batches as needed (between 2 and 12 copies at a time) on a USB DVD drive connected to my Windows 10 laptop.
I played a sample of the discs on a DVD player to check all was well, which it seemed to be, then went ahead with the batches. Reports started coming back from people who had received them that discs were crashing, so I retrieved some to test.
Sure enough, the ones I checked failed while playing. It's not always the same, but these are the kind of faults I'm seeing:
- Video and audio freeze, after a short while advancing a few frames and freezing again. Soon, it stops altogether, and the remote is unresponsive apart from powering-off the player. This also occurs when playing on the PC/USB drive setup used to burn the disc. I'm using VLC Media Player.
- On the computer, video freezes but audio continues... after a while the video catches up , stutters, and dumps me back to the VLC start screen.
I've invested quite a bit of time and my credibility with a good friend in this project, and I'd hate to see it all wasted. I would really appreciate any thoughts, including whether the ISO route might be worth pursuing.
