    One thing I have noticed is DVDs may skip if setting near a magnet (TV's, clock radios or anything with speakers). First try a few different DVD players if you have access to them. If you are fortunate enough to discover they don't skip it could be the player. I persoanlly recommend MDV455 Magnavox. It is a $60 player and has played everything I have backed up so far and nothing skips.

    #Ed,

    Try increasing your compression slightly so that you aren't writting to the outside edge of the disc AND I believe that a change to a better grade media will be of help too - I personally like Ritek or Verbatim -

    and Welcome to the Neiighborhood :))
