You can't tell whether it has been burned too fast on a PC, but you could see if the session's been closed and the structure's correct. If it's not maybe you could copy the data onto a fresh disc and try that. Open sessions and strange data structures often confuse DVD players, and can sometimes be fixed by Nero and the likes.

Perhaps the files on them aren't compatible with your recorder. What file-type are they?
