It may be just a bad burn. Rip it back to your HD with MacTheRipper and open the resulting VIDEO_TS folder with DVD Player. If the problem shows there, it is bad encoding. If if does not show there, it is bad burning.

Either way, you'll know whether it just needs to be re-burned or re-encoded and then re-burned. It's probably not worth the time to try and save the DVD you have already burned. 

Good luck,
