1. Between the chapters the DVD's stops/freezers or goes back to either the start or pixelates?
This has become a common problem; the reason being that new discs hold information on two layers while old discs only had one. Some of the older or cheaper machines have problems with the changing layers of the movie. There is no real fix to this problem but fast forwarding at the time that it skips at hope the machine can change to the new layer in time.
2. 5mm from the outside edge of PS game or DVD is there a scratch?
This is a all to common problem with the play station 2, because when the disc is placed in a upstanding console the speed causes the disc to wobble, causing it to scrap the inside of the machine. Over a period of time this damages the game meaning it will no longer play. This problem can be fixed by using round labels rather then the square ones and by using MACH 1 machine from the disc doctor.

Cheaper machine have cheaper lasers so we recommend that you stick to the better-known brands and keep disc clean and protected.
