I hope this is the proper subforum. If it isn't, please move it.
I have been using TDK +R DVDs' to burn movies won my PC with no issues. Now, when I use thesame media in a Magnavox/Funai H2160MW9 DVR/DVD recorder and play them back on a Oppo HD970 stand alone player, the video is sometimes choppy. Choppy as in appearing to be 2-4 good frames, then skipping 2-4 frames. The discs are burned at their 'SP' quality (2nd best level). Played back on the same deck shows no problem (of course).
The situation becomes odd for the reason this 'choppy' video (audio is ok) isn't consistent. Some times it does, some times it doesn't. When it acts up, if I pause or stop the playback and resume, many times that clears up the problem. The other oddity is, it isn't on just one or two discs, or portions of the disks, it is anywhere at anytime. I can play a selection with no issue, navigate to another title, or another part of that same title and the problem is back. If it starts to play ok, the rest of the title is good if I don't stop or pause the disc.
Any ideas what is happening where the player is having a problem smoothly playing back these discs? Obviously, it is a issue between the TDK media and this Funai recorder, since this same media burned on a PC and played back on the Oppo has no issue, but why.

TDK is CMC, meaning not a reliable disc. That you think they have "no issues" in the PC burner is irrelevant. Get better blanks. See www.digitalFAQ.com for more information on the best blank DVDs, and where to buy them
That's all it is. Unreliable media.Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)

But, what causes all of this?

I understand that the cause of the problem is cheaper media, but why does the playback deck 'chop' up, or stutter the video without affecting the audio? Technically, why doesn't the player handle the media correctly?
Regarding -R vs +R, I was under the understanding that +R was preferred (as long as you don't have any older players) because it came out after -R .Why are ones and zeros so complicated? Linear Video Editing was easier. Downloading & streaming are two different things. -

Does it really matter why this happened? Can't you just accept it and fix it?Why are ones and zeros so complicated? Linear Video Editing was easier. Downloading & streaming are two different things.

It was a nice read what I saw of it. I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that.
