DVD menus created with DeVeDe look screwey on DVD player

[Andrew Farris]

Hey everybody,

There's been a bit of talk about using DeVeDe recently for making DVD
movies, so I thought I'd give it a try, as I had a compilation movie I
needed to make, and DeVeDe seemed to do exactly what I wanted. However,
there's an issue with playing disks created with DeVeDe on an actual DVD
player: The menus are all completely unreadable and unusable. 

The menus, when running the DVD in an actual player, ripple and tear as
though using an extremely low refresh rate or something. In addition,
they're offset so that the middle of the menu is on the left side of the
screen with a big black bar on the right. 

The videos on the DVD play perfectly with no issues, and the menus also
look just fine when played on my computer (through Totem and VLC) so I
was wondering if there's some setting I may need to change that I missed
to get the menus to look right. Also, I used to use QDVDAuthor for doing
this sort of thing, but it's just too unstable for my taste... however,
despite it's instability, menus created with that program work perfectly
on my DVD player.

Any ideas? Thanks!
