Out of date firmware with wrong write strategies can get these results. Also pretty cheap to replace if you don't care about brands. The player is of course an issue, if you have a three or 4 year old player it is more likely to be picky about the DVDs it reads. Using "quality" media will most frequently solve the problem. The easiest thing for most people to do is change media. I feel that pinpointing the one source of this problem is a waste of time and impossible. BTC is one of the best reader drives made. Remember disc readability depends on the drive some too.
DVD PLAYER FOR MAC THAT DOES NOT SKIP OVER DAMAGED ISO
Maybe try some repair methods ( ISO Buster Pro, using UDF recovery mode). Given the most recent OP posts, read more info at on discs, see what you used. Video spikes (unrelated to PCM) might happen that way, with a really crappy encoder (Panasonic DVD recorders in XP, some versions of TMPEnc, a number of freeware/cheapware encoders, etc). The only way to have a bitrate spike be the cause, with that much delay, following what I've read from the OP, is if the screen barely moved, and then suddenly jumped into the middle of horse race or a shaky/running handheld camera. PCM/video combo would have frozen far faster than originally stated, as bitrate fluxuates far faster than most people realize. If it plays fine for a while, then halts, it's going to follow the media>player>other listing. #1 is always the media, and #2 is always the player, then #3 and beyond get into other areas of how video is encoded.Īnd again, this applies to the statements being made by the poster.

This is classic process of elimination, where you discount the most likely scenarios one by one, gradually narrowing down until it's solved or you end up with some obscure reasons.

The assumptions have to fall to the stereotypical errors when a person is 100% lost on what the problem is. If you've set your bitrates high and use PCM audio ( like many people do for both ) and your disc skips, you'd suspect the player to be faulty before considering maybe its a bitrate issue? That's kinda weird but whatever.
