I've had my DVD burner for several months and have burned
many data and audio CDs sucessfully.  After importing my
digital video into MM2, I edited a short 2 1/2 minute clip
that I will need in an upcoming court appearance.  
I brought the file into WinDVD and burned it to a DVD-R.
Previously, I had burned it to SVDC as well.  My computer
plays the file just fine but none of the cds nor the DVD
will play (in the computer drives) without some jerky
motion.  The DVD will play in a home DVD player, however
but if I pause the disk, it won't step forward or backward
from that pause point.  I have to press stop and then play
from the beginning.  Not good enough.

After I burned the DVD, my computer has not been the same.
It slowed down to a crawl and I re-booted to multiple
errors, missing files, etc.  Now, when I re-boot, CHKDSK
runs EVERY time.  The computer seems otherwise healthy now
but I'm afraid to burn another DVD.  The hdds pass Maxtor's
tests.

The system has three fast hard drives, plenty of speed,
memory and graphics capabilities and is defragged.  I need
to be able to produce a DVD that can be paused and shown
frame by frame "to the judge" in order to make my point in
court, so this is pretty important to me right now.  I
would like to do more video for pleasure but have to get
this done first.  Any suggestions would be most
appreciated.  Thanks,
