Now about my problem. I burned the DE's to DVD+R DL media and they played fine on my laptop. However my old 40GB fat PS3 (my only bluray player besides the laptop) did a hard hang mid way through each film on the layer switch.

Same here and I think you'll find that's normal (on a Sony anyway) because what you're playing is not an actual DVD but just a file on a DVD. The only way I can watch it nicely is via a USB stick rammed into my Sony BD player.

I guess if you want it to play as you want from a disc you'll need to wait for the BD version to be released.
