Arabesk DVD incompatability Can't Post

Just burned two dvds with Kron+ and Arabesk1.x. 15 minute project with 3 scenes, no transitions and no fx. Discs would not play on Panasonic 3030 writer/player we have nor would it play on a GoVideo dual deck. They would play on a Sony 3800. Went to the local BestBuy to try them out. They would only play on 3 of the 10 players I tried. 2/3 failure rate is not acceptable. Is there something I am missing? Used Verbatim printable blanks. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Hey Terry,
I can tell you to stay far away from Go Video Decks or most any combo decks out there. We have never had a compatible disc with a Go Video unit.
I don't have any experience with the Panasonic dvd player or burner? you mentioned.
We also use printable Verbatim DVD-R's, as well as the new Memorex brand out there. You can find them at Best Buy. They are $1 each. Haven't made a coaster yet!
We have Smart Edit 3.1 and Arabesk 2.0 and haven't had any burning problems at all.

Did a new experiment. Burned 2 discs with Arabesk (1.3f)Kron+3.1. One on Verbatim printable and one on TDK. Never looked at menu and rebooted in empty project on one (TDK). Burned same project on Verbatum from Kron+ finish screen directly to Panasonic 3030 (firewire). Very limited options but does have a menu. Also burned a copy of same material on pc, loaded into Vegas and burned with DVD Architect.
To make a long story short the Architect and Panasonic burned discs played in all ten players I tried them in. The Arabesk played in only 3!!.
There be a problem somewhere!!
