I own a Pioneer DV-515 standalone player. I've been using it for 3 years and I played about 100 commercial DVD-videos (region 1&2) during this time and I had no single incident where my player did not play the DVD or some disturbances occured on the screen etc.
I also made several VCDs and played with my 515 and few problems I had but usually it was more than OK.
Lastly, I've captured a movie via my Canon digital camcorder and heaviliy edited inside Adobe premiere 6.5, dvd-encoded(average 7Mbit/sec, max 8Mbit/sec) with its built-in encoder, created two audio tracks, very simple menu and a small introduction movie and having created my project in reelDVD 3.0.3, I burnt it by my Pioneer DVR-105. It played perfect with CinePlayer but when I took it home and inserted into my Pioneer DV-515, it did not play.
For a second or two my introduction movie appears, then it freezes. If I pause and play again, movie rolls for another 2-3 seconds then again it freezes.
I used a DMS-brand(far east) DVD-R and burnt at 2x speed.
Again, this DVD-R media gave me no problems at all with any data recording in my PC.
How could I solve this problem?

supplement:
I had ordered new 4x Pioneer DVD-R's from atdiscount.com and yesterday having recived them, I burnt my project into
two of them(one directly with ReelDVD and one by creating video_ts files in Reel and then burning by Nero 5.5.10).
Exactly same results happened.
as for the intro movie -which lasts only 4 seconds-, has same bitrate with my main movie.
could encoding software be culprit at all? i mean encoding by premiere or by TMPGEnc or Ulead's movie maker or sonic
could have any effects on playback in my DV-515?
Pioneer DV-515 has a bitrate meter on the screen showing upto 10MBit/sec. I didn't experience anything bad at all
playing high bitrate movies, for instance terminator-2 special edition has a warning leaflet coming with it saying
"due to its high capacity and sophisticated features of this DVD, some players may create problems",
mine had none.
do you think old players are somehow not capable of playing home-made DVD-Rs and upgrading my DVD player to a brand
new model would solve the problem?
and why on earth it differs from commercial made DVD-Rs; what do they do special while manufacturing those DVDs that
we can not?
