Thank you all far the advise !
Hi ynotfish,
Your method certainly works, just as I'm using another PC for DVD burning.
This method is to be compared as "The front door of the house has something wrong with the lock. I'll get in through the kitchen window! "
Carl,
After turning off the hardware acceleration the burned DVD plays well in the DVD player! However still colored squares when viewed with PC with powerDVD.
I hope it plays well in my parents DVD player... it is supposed to be for them.
Would you know what exactly means hardware acceleration ? Does unselecting it affect speed of rendering?
It is possible to select acceleration with OpenCL. Is this acceleration with GPU ? As I have a fast Nvidia GTX 560 Ti, could it be usefull to select OpenCL ?

Thanks for your advice.
I turned of "shadow file" + reduced speed to min = x4. Problem remains.
In order to save DVD's I decided to write to file instead of burning. The result is the same when viewing the created DVD files on the hard drive: small squares, green, purple, ... !

Many claim about low quality of burned DVD's. The usual answer is: burn in 1920x1080 ... 
My problem when burning DVD's with PD10 is not a lower quality image, but blocks that appear when viewed with my DVD player.  When viewed with PowerDVD on my PC I have many small flashy colored blocks on the botttom of the screen.
It seems that the rendering engine and my new PC can't work together.
All drivers have been updated, including the one of the internal LG Blue Ray/DVD writer.
The problem was allready present with PD9, so I upgraded to PD10. Problem remains.
Producing HD Mpeg2, WMV or AVCHD works perfectly.
I have a second PC with PD10 that burns perfectly well DVDs, no blocks on the screen.
However that PC ( I5 with 4GB RAM, slow HD, 17" LCD) is weaker for HD video editing. My imported files are 1920x1080i.
Who has an idea to have rendering with no blocks on my super fast I7 PC when burning DVD's ?
Good to know: when producing mpeg2 files 720x576, I have many thin lines on the borders that make a mess. Rendering problem as well. However mpeg 2 in 1920x1080 is perfect.
In the meantime what I do is editing in PD10 with my fast PC, producing in mpeg 1920x1080 and use my good but slower PC with PD10 to import those heavy mpeg files and burn into nice DVD's, since this slower PC offers a good DVD rendering. 
Last but not least: the reason for making low res DVDs is to make a present of edited movies to my family to be viewed on DVD player.
Question 1: what's wrong with my fast I7 PC with DVD rendering ?
Question 2: is there a loss of quality of image when editing from my 1920x1080i cam + produce mpeg in 1920x1080 and finaly burn DVD's ? (instead of burning directly DVD's ).
Thanks for help.
