This is often a side effect of what I have been told is a poor specification
in the DVD industry regarding writing at > 1x speed, in that certain
requirements were set for that speed but not for higher speeds.

I have had much better luck with DVD data portability if I always 
burn DVDs at 1x (or as close to it as the DVD firmware will allow),
particularly when it comes to burning on one system and reading on
another.
