It played back fine on both… so it must be the program im using to burn DVDs… im going to write down the encoding settings i use over there and repost in a second. I will need help on correcting them. Thanks!!

Im doing a test right now. Im burning a DVD through DVD Studio 4 with a new sequence with the footage pasted into it.
Im also burning a DVD through DVD studio pro from the orinal sequence.
Also I am using my compression setting for the m2v files through compressor.
Lets see what i come up with.. this should tell me whether or not its FCP or my DVD program.

The reason the quality so so low is because i have one 30 min show, a 9 min version, and the 16 different 5 minute sections that fit on the dvd as well… all of the other sections arent flickering up, I used the same compressor settings for an m2v file. Just doesnt make sense why it would be the DVD program when every other section of even the same shots are fine, no flicker but on my main 30 minute show they are messed up… Also before about a month ago when I exported this. I used the same export settings, no flicker. The length of the film has stayed the same, the only changes I made were replacing some shots with newer shots.
It just doesnt make sense, thats why i believe its a problem in FCP

Actually, I ended up adding a shift field to some clips to see if it would FIX the problem… so its not that… 🙁

Sorry for the late response, I have been in meetings, and yes its VERY urgent. The project file used to not flicker on the images… and its not just the images… its doing it in video throughout the 30 minute show. The main thing is I cant see it doing it on my computer, when the final project is burned I can see the video jittering across in certain areas… and it gets really nasty… As i said before the project used to work fine, no jittering or anything. Not sure how it started doing it either.
I cant take a screenshot of whats going on because its on my TV not the computer.

where at in the manual is this? Im looking at the FCP 6 User Manual Volume IV: Media Management and Output. I dont see anything about that in Chapter 2.
