Anyone download these VCD quality shows and put them on a CD to play in your DVD player? I've been to vcdhelp.com and I'm not having any luck.

don't know how to go about doing it? if you do and you're having compatibility issues, use the mpeg-corrector tool they have there. btw, I haven't tested the most recent two.

I've been doing it...my brother was using his new cable the other day, and it works luurrrvveeelllyyy!!!

To create a VCD file, download Nero at www.nero.com and burn it as a Video CD. If you're trying to play it on your DVD player and it doesn't work, then your DVD player might be not able to play VCD's, if it is able to and it's not, you might have to get your DVD player chipped.

Hope this helps Holomatrix [email]

"Remember folks, not all DVD players can play VCD's and even if they can, not all VCD able DVD players can play CD-R VCD's (ie home burnt VCD's, some only accept commercial VCD's)."

A COMPLETE and TOTAL rewording of my previous post. You're not taking all the glory damn you! : 80P

Well I do know that alot of DVD players do not play CDR's but will play RW's fine. So try burning your VCD to a RW and should work - if it structures the VCD properly.

go to www.vcdhelp.com and click on "dvd players" in the left bar, a little ways down. if you find your player listed, it will tell you what types of things it will play, with user comments added (to give hints at good brands of media, formats, etc based on their experience). if its not on the list, it probably doesnt play VCDs.
