As an update in the troubleshooting process, I went ahead and burned
the ISO directly to a DVD+RW disk. The problem remains. However, I
do see now that although the menu was properly burned to the disk as
VIDEO_TS.VOB (1,016KB MPEG Video), the movie itself shows as
VTS_01_1.VOB (0KB Empty Document).
I'm not sure what to try next in the troubleshooting process.
