Popping distortion on sound on DVD

[Monobod]

Hello,

I have successfully created several *.exe files using PtE but have just tried to burn my first DVD from the same source file. The program creates the DVD OK, but when playing it, there are problems with the sound quality, which are not in the exe file. At random locations there are staccato popping sounds, mostly associated with the bass end of the background music.

Is this a known problem. I have a DELL Dimension E521 dual processor desktop with about 40gbytes free on the C: drive. 2Mb of RAM.

I do not understand the 'Property' settings in PtoE burner, but have selected the highest bit rate for Audio. Is this correct?

Any help would be most appreciated.

Burn speed used was 16x using Verbatim DVD-R 4.7gbyte 16x disks.

I have just played the DVD on my Panasonic BlueRay DVD player and widescreen TV and it works perfectly, no sound problem. So it seems my computer DVD read/write drive may be at fault.

Good to know that the software is OK though. Any comment on the computer problem would be welcome though.

Thanks.
