Are you sure it was a VCD and not an SVCD? My DVD player can't play SVCD's. I'm assuming you're already certain yours can at least play VCD's. I can't stand ezcd, it's a horrible program. Ditch it and get Nero.

I have got to agree with you there,ditch ezcd and get nero.You can get it here (http://www.nero.com)...or look in software world for hashs for it. ;)

Nero is easy to do vcd but the quality of the vcd is not as good as with other "real" encoders and it takes longer with Nero then a encode program called "TMPGEnc" which I personally thinks is best cuz there you have more settings,better quality and takes less time.

Just add http:// to the link and it'll become one automatically.

btw, vcdhelp.com was moved to http://www.dvdrhelp.com

Thanks for links info

I never realized it had changed as I have it set as a Fav

I know there are some nice bits of software out there which are very good at doing this (no messing about with settings) but I can't find ourt which ones they are at the moment as my husband is 9 sheets to the wind at the moment

The answer is here!
At least one answer. I have made dozens of VCDs without a problem, until recently. It was the brand of CDRs that I had used.

I bet you anything, that if you bought PRINCO brand CDRs that your problems will be solved. Those CDs are the best, for DATA and music. They have a very silvery compound in them that lets your DVD player accept them (provided that your DVD player recognizes VCDs).

[Huh?]

Actually, vcdhelp.com did change their name but if you go to www.vcdhelp.com (http://www.vcdhelp.com) it still goes to www.dvdrhelp.com (http://www.dvdrhelp.com). They go to the same place. :D
