By MPEG4 I asume you are meaning DivX or XVid? There are players that
will play them. MPEG4 is more compressed than MPEG2 DVD so when
converting to DVD the file sizes will be bigger. You could experiment
with the data rate - the higher the data rate, the higher the quality.

Using Nero Ultra I have never had a problem with players not
recognising the disc. How did you go about it?

Also, what disc were you using? DL discs are more problematic.
