    Are you viewing authentic commercial dvd's?

    What software player are you using to playback these dvd's?

    It may be possible that the dvd media or drive itself may be "dirty" or damaged.

      If you are playing original, commercial DVDs and your pc gear is working as it should (set up and functioning correctly); installing the latest drivers for the DVD ROM and your G4 might solve your problems. Go to the Creative and nvidea web sites and download their latest drivers. If this doesn't solve the problem you could be experiencing buffer under/over runs. Try swapping the DVD ROM from primary to secondary or vice versa.
