Hi Olivia -
There are a number of factors that can cause glitchy discs... burn speed, disc type/brand, content in timeline, player function etc etc
Making DVDs from your HD clips is really an
unsatisfactory way to get a quality product. Of course, it's necessary sometimes & you should expect (at least) a reasonable quality output without jerks & freezes.
What happens when you simply
produce the video (i.e. make a video file) - no jerking & freezing? If you've not tried that yet, it would be worth doing to isolate issues. Try MPEG-2 1920x1080, then MPEG-2 DVD HQ
Pre-producing & lowering the burn speed are two ways of elimination possible issues with DVD burning.
Cheers - Tony
