Videos onto CD-R

[ravager88]

Well i have some short videos and stuff that will be able to fit onto
CD-R disc. I know that if i burn the video to a dvd then i will be abl
to play it. But what if i want to save a dvd and burn it to a cd-r?

Can CD-R's support video? I mean my dvd player will support both dvd
and cds but im not sure if the cd-r can support video.

So is it possible to burn a short video to a CD-R instead of a DVD-
and be able to play it on a regular dvd player

Within the size limits, a CD and DVD both record data. It
should work.

On Google search for "VCD" (for Video Compact Disk)

The first search result I get is http://www.videohelp.com/vcd

The format is called VCD (Video CD), it will give about an hour of
VHS-quality video (with audio) per CD. *MOST* but not all DVD players
handle it.

So is it not possible to just burn a short video onto a cd and play it
on a dvd player?

Your saying I HAVE to convert it to vcd or something else or it wont
work?
