VCD Help

[mello_yello]

Could anyone help me with this problem? I have various avi files on my computer and have used nero to make vcd's. Unfortunately these vcd's dont actually work on my DVD player (Sony DVP-NS300). I borrowed a vcd of someone b4 that had used nero to make the vcd and that one worked. Y doesnt it work for me?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanx

The only reason I can think of is that the files that you are using to make VCD's are not VCD compliant and therefore won't play, even if you do convert them using the plug-in for Nero, and if you're talking about a DivX file, you should probably convert the DivX file into a S/VCD compliant mpeg format since avi's dont usually work NEwayz... but yeah... there are guides to do this conversion, one eing this: http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/ar...genc_svcd.html if you want to try it out.

Standalone players (and especially Sonys) are "finicky" about which brands of CD-R they will recognize. Try to use the same brand as those that you've successfully played...

i don't know what make the disk was that worked, so does anyone know a make that will actually work on a sony?
