Can any one help ?

214689 2004-02-11 10:33:00 IIRC, S/VCD is simply mpg1 files?!

Try selecting Open, and tell it to open any file type.

Either that, or go through My Computer, browse for the files and tell them to open with Windows Media Player, or my fav, WinAmp :-)

Cheers

214691 2004-02-11 11:39:00 When I lasted tried to play a VCD in Windows, I simply opened the files in WinAmp 2.9x

Im assuming WinAmp 5 would do just as good :-)

214692 2004-02-11 20:21:00 There is a large .dat file on each CD which is the MPEG 1 file. If you drag that file onto media player it may play it -earlier versions did. You will not be able to use any vcd features like menu screens etc however. BIFF (1)
