Video glitches and stutters on those HDTV + DVD player combo set

So I've shot a video for a client and used a basic workflow, FCP>Compressor>DVDSP to build and burn the DVD. It looks good on my DVD player, good on my clients computer monitor but when we try to play it on his HDTV+DVD combo player in his waiting room, it stutters pretty bad and the pixels are goes a bit crazy as if the DVD is scratched.

Prior to trying my DVD, they were playing their own DVD on their combo set just fine, they used a DVD burned on a Maxwell disc, DVD-R. For me, I've used the memorex DVD-R. So here I am trying to figure out the source of this video stuttering problem on my disc. I don't feel that certain brands of blank DVD can remedy this problem but I'll try a Maxwell disc burn anyways. I used DVDSP to burn the DVD, is there a way to burn at a slower speed? Would that help? Any other suggestions would be great, thanks!

The media can't be bad if it plays fine on my dvd player right?

Video bitrate is at 6.2 Mbps
Audio is in AC3 format and data rate is 192 kbps. Not quite sure what you mean by encode in 7 to 7.5 for audio, (sorry, still learning)

These settings are directly from compressor's preset, DVD best quality 90min. Average bitrate 6.2 and max bitrate 7.7 with the two pass VBR best mode. I think I'll lower the average/max bitrate a bit to see if it works.

I will only need to play this DVD on that particular TV/DVD player in the clients waiting room, so I'll try as many burn/encode methods as possible and bring them all to try it.

Other things to try out, let me know if you guys have any thoughts
-Build in DVDSP and burn in Toast. That way I can adjust the burn speed.
-Try different brand of DVD disc such as Maxwell

It means I agree with you :)

That's what I like about the COW... I learn something new every day!
