You don't say exactly how you burned the DVDs that don't work. Without
that information it's difficult to know what could be wrong. For
instance, some people mistakenly copy the ISO file to an empty DVD *as a
file* rather than a disk image. This will never work.

You might also test whether other DVDs burned on the same machine (with
the same type of media) do work.

Sure, the thousands of people who've done this have had the same problem
but no-one thought to mention it till now.
