It would help if you were to tell us what program from what suite you are using.

The grey screen with circles and the word mpeg2 is normall when you are rendering a video that is already DVD compliant.

It is Easy media Creator 10,I created the slideshow in videowave saved as mpeg2 not sure if that is what your asking, also not sure what last bit of your answer is about, I'm not very up to date with all the technical side or jargon,

It means that the video is already converted and does not have to be re-rendered. It is not a problem.

Please explain exactly what problem you are having.

The problem is that there is no movie on the dvd when I remove it from the computer, normally when I did this before I would see the movie play in the preview window as it was being burned.

Please, you are mixing apples with baseball bats.  The Smart render should have nothing to do with he DVD not playing.   Concentrate on explaining how you are burning the file to the disc.  Ignore the gray screen.
