I don't believe its the media. I had something like this happen with Apple media and cheap media too when playing them back in my Sony DVD 530D player.

I found that my Sony player was built in 1999 and DVD-R wasn't all that popular back then. Remember they started out with 3.95 gig DVD-R's at first, so I thought it was intersting how if I burned past 4 gigs on my dvd-r's, the end of the movie was always messed up on my Sony. but if I stayed below 4 gigs, it was fine.

Then I got an Oritron DVD 600, which is a cheap dvd player. its a lot newer though and guess what, it plays all those DVD-R's ,even the ones past 4 gigs without any problems. it even plays the cheap media ones.

Find out what year your dvd player was built.
