Why is video slowing down?

[randyannie]

I'm wondering if somone can point me in the direction of a troubleshooting guide that would address a problem I'm having. Here are the details:

I'm capping, editing, authoring and burning DVD's (MPEG2 Standard) using Cyberlink PowerDirector 3.0. Everything seems to go well, but when I put my newly burned DVD in my Sanyo standalone player, I get some instances - about every 10 minutes or so - where the video seems to slow down a bit. Kind of like the frame rate is slipping. I know that there is probably some info already posted on this site, but when I did a search I didn't come up with anything relevant.

On the very last disk I did, of three, the audio started to lag behing the video slightly too. I wonder if anyone can advise me on how to fix it.

Thanks, Randy

1st off, play the video on your computer. does it do the same thing? if it does, do the original video files do it too? it could also be a media issue. what brand of dvdr are you using?
