If it works flawlessly on your PC Ian, there can't be anything wrong with the file. So changing the music won't help. What settings are you using to burn with, and what programme?

Don't know that programme Ian. so hopefully someone who does will jump in here. Meanwhile; What speed are you burning at? Try slower. (no more than 4X) What bit rate? Try a different setting. What brand of discs? Try a different disc - maybe a bad batch? What file type is the audio, before burning to disc?

Good brand of disc. Try burning at 4X? Have you tried burning a different project, just in case there's a bad batch though? How about converting the audio to DD (with your NLE) so that your DVD authoring programme doesn't have to convert it. Worth a try?

To elaborate on Mooblie's post...

DVD Video has a maximum theoretical data rate. Not all DVD players can cope with the maximum datarate under all conditions.

The answer is to restrict the overall datarate so that it peaks at around 70 to 80 percent of the maximum.

In most cases 6 or 7mbit/second for the video with compressed Dolby Digital AC3 audio will fix stuttering discs (provided that the high datarate was the cause).
