View Full Version : chapters in VCD??

So,
I have successfully burned a few VCD's and they play alright also on the standalone player.
BUT,

1.
if I have several movies on one VCD I can't simply go to the next movie by selecting "next track". Once I have at least played all the movies for a few seconds, then it works. Why is that?? and is there a way to go from movie to movie without having it played before??
2.
On the standalone I can't fast forward/rewind the VCD. Why is that??
3.
Can I introduce chapters or keyframes in a VCD??

The standalone is a Cyberhome. The burning software I don't remember right now (stupid me...), but it's not Nero.

Thanks,
acm

Hi

I read somewhere that the fast forward/rewind thing is due to a file that has to be added into one of the directories created on the VCD, this problem is usually with SVCD.
I use Nero and do not have this problem.

As for chapters - get a prog called VCDEasy, it can do that.

:D

"if I have several movies on one VCD I can't simply go to the next movie by selecting 'next track'''

If your standalone has a remote which includes a numeric keypad, try pressing a number (sometimes the videos are on every other track) and then pressing "Play".

Let us know of your success ;>}
