I'm using Toast titanium, and I burned a DVD from a bunch of .vob files..... it plays fine in my imac, but when I put it in my home theater system ( A pioneer brand), the audio works fine, but the video is 'off', almost like the tracking is off on a VCR, the image just keeps scrolling upwards. How do I fix this????

Where's the adjustment for this??? If you burn a UDF dvd from .vob files, there is no option that I can see.

There isn't. The issue is probably whether your TV can handle a PAL (50Hz) signal. Sounds like it's trying to display the 50Hz/625 line signal (PAL) at a 60Hz/525 line frequency (NTSC), which accounts for the rolling.

Generally, newer/more expensive TVs can handle different scan rates, but this is not always the case. In my (limited) experience, I've found European (PAL) TVs more likely to play back NTSC than US (NTSC) TVs playing back PAL. Of course YMMV, etc.
