====================================
I'm still thinking there could be a compatibility
issue but am not certain. You may have noticed
that JPEGs can sometimes cause issues but
since the first project was successful...I'm guessing
that's not the problem.

It may be worth a try to convert the .wma audio files
to .wav. Actually you could even try converting them
to .wma because the converter will use different
codecs.

The following freeware may be worth a try:

SUPER © Simplified
Universal Player Encoder & Renderer

(the mirror download site is faster)

Did you Publish your project first as a Movie before
attempting to create the DVD?

Windows Vista -
Publish a movie in
Windows Movie Maker

Then you could burn your .wmv movie file to
a DVD:

Windows Vista -
Burn pictures and movies to DVD-Video
disc using Windows DVD Maker

Good luck.
