I have seen this before from PC burned DVD's, it has todo with the fact that some PC software aren't burning and encoding a dvd as it should be. A simple example is dvdbackup for PC it also places a file called backup on it's root without you even know it, and some dvd players than fail to play those dvd's.

Try looking at the disc through the Terminal. Have the DVD mounted and open the Terminal and type (without the quotation marks) "cd /Volumes/DVDName". Then type "ls" to see if it recognizes anything inside. If it does and it is unencrypted you can copy the folders over to your Mac. Type "cp /Volumes/DVDName/VIDEO_TS /Users/yourusername/Desktop/VIDEO_TS" and see if you can burn that.
