VCD\'s ??
« on: March 01, 2001, 05:52:40 PM »
Howdy,
 I just got a video cature card and was told I could make VCD\'s that a DVD player would play. I haven\'t tried it in another DVD player but can the PS2 play VCD\'s??, or anyway of making it play them (eg patches or mods etc..)

 Thanks

VCD is a sort of low-quality mpeg-1 with a bitrate of 112kbps to around 115kbps.  Few DVD players can play VCDs.  Pioneers are known to play em, as well as Apex...

VCD is a Video CD which is a HIGH quality MPEG-1 (1,376kbps)
about the same as VHS, sometimes better depending on the encode with alot better sound

Ok I have made a lot of vcd\'s & given them to friends with DVD players, quite a lot of dvd players can play vcd\'s. Your problem is that not all the ones that can play vcd\'s can play CDR, for instance 3 of my friends could not play them one had a Samsung (I think), one had A pioneer and the other a Sony that\'s just an example that\'s not to say all Sony\'s don\'t play CDR\'s far from it most do my other friend has a Sony plays them all flawlessly. What I have found is even if the DVD player didn\'t play cdr\'s, when I burnt them on to a particular brand CDR (they have a weird green-grey bottom like CDRW) they played (this did not work on the above mention Samsung but did work on the above mentioned Sony).

As for the PS2 playing VCd\'s no, not out the box & third party may make an add on or something that will play them. It is possible.

O.T.] I have a friend who does magic he has one trick in particular that\'s amazing he asks you for a regular coin dollar or 10 pence in size & spins it between his to index fingers he quickly takes his hands away, & the coin then floats in mid air he passes his hand all round the coin to show there\'s  no wires. I don\'t know how he does it but its got to be seen to be  believed. I have  put this trick on vcd & can give it out to people if anyone wants it send me a blank cdr & I\'ll put it on there.
