[wplug] DVD compatibility

Anyone out there have any experience burning DVD that are compatible with
DVD readers?

We recently purchased a LiteOn DVD burner, and a stack of blank DVD-R.
After about a month of using it, we came to realize that the only device
that can read _any_ of the burned DVDs is the burner that made them, of
two other DVD readers, neither can read the DVDs.  Both of these readers
are able to grok standard pressed DVDs without problem.

We've tried the following:
1) Bought more DVD-Rs.  This time, name brand ones.  Same problem.
2) Tried creating an ISO image under FreeBSD and burning that (as
   opposed to letting Nero create everything).  Same problem.
3) Updated the firmware, no change.
4) Twiddled around with the infinite settings under Nero in an attempt
   to make DVDs compatible.  Nothing helped.

Any suggestions?  This is pretty frustrating.
