I take it you are referring to the 'VCD Header trick' used to persuade some DVD players to play SVCD's where they normally wouldn't. This does not work on all players and on mine (Panasonic RV41) only works if the SVCD is trictly standrds compliant. If the bitrate goes above the maximum allowed it freezes and stutters just like you described.

The most likley reason for freezing and stuttering like this is that the DVD player simply cannot read the data from the CD media quick enough to decode and display it in real time. If this is the case with your player (and you don't say what it is) then it simply won't play SVCD's no matter what you do, sorry.
