I've been using DVD Studio Pro since it came out, and the second version supercedes the first by leaps and bounds. I've done about 100 or so now, and am getting pretty good results that play in most machines that I've tested with including Sony's. I think a lot of the problems on different players is the media you use. Lately I am using USDM DVD-R's with high success, buying them from http://www.cdrom2go.com/
I think the hardest part is getting a good clean encode at a reasonable bitrate. In the past I have used Bitvice, but have recently been using Apple's Compressor and getting comparable results and shorter encode times.
I did some work a few years back with a company called Vidfilm who has since been bought by Technicolor I believe. They do a lot of Hollywood titles there, encoding with either a Spruce(now owned by Apple) system or the old standby Minerva systems which yield absolutely amazing results. And yes, there was an entire room full of consumer DVD players they tested on.
