Vista - Vista produced DVD won't play in DVD player

Captured a video (Canon Elura 100) in Movie Maker 2.6 and created a DVD with
DVD maker.

Plays fine on the computer but will not play on any DVD player. Tries to
read it and spits it out after 30 seconds.

Not all players will play all types of DVD. My previous player would play
DVD+R but not DVD +- RW. Also may not play all brands enen if is supposed to
play that type. Newer players play more types so if you can find someone
with a 'new' player try theirs. Be sure to check your player's manual to
make sure that it is supposed to play the type you are making.

I have two different players less than a year old. I have created movies in
Windows XP with no problems. The is my first attempt in Vista. I confident it
is not the DVD players.
My suspisicion is something in DVD maker but there are not many options to
change.

O well, so much for the easy stuff.
I just tried a slide show of 70 pictures onto a DVD+RW, other than taking a
long time to generate, seemed to go well. Played on my new LG player just
fine. The only thing I changed from the default was to lengthen the display
time per picture, I can't see that having any effect.

Sorry I can't be of any help,
Michael
