I used iDVD7/10.6.8/iMac to import an mp4 video, and burn it onto a DVD-R for playing on a standard DVD player. When I take that burned disk, it plays great on my Panasonic player. It plays great on my Mac, with DVD Player. But my Toshiba LCD TV gives an "incorrect disk" message. That Toshiba player plays commercial disks fine.
What gives?? I want a disk I can play anywhere.

Thank you. That's good to know. I will use iDVD for most of my burns. But at least on my 24-inch TV, the "fit to DVD" burn looks great here for my 150 minute video. I'm just a little surprised that iDVD doesn't offer that encoding option. It's really up to me what level of quality I demand, and iDVD doesn't seem to want to offer me a very large range to choose from. That is, the trade of quality versus content size really ought to be entirely up to me. I agree that very low quality encoding will look terrible, but I'm nowhere near that in this case.
Now, Burn doesn't offer a very low write speed, and of course doesn't offer all the nice titling and track management that iDVD provides.
iDVD and "incorrect disk"?
