Hi All.
I have made slide shows and video clips that play fine on computers but I
can't seem to get a CD to play on a home CD/DVD player. Does any one know
were I can get instructions on how to make a CD that any one can view? I
did a search and wound up on web sites selling DVD recorders.
Any help is appreciated.
 
you need a DVD player that supports CDR/CDRW, most
usually do, but some can be quite fussy, some will play
CDR but not CDRW, some vice versa... but you also need to
encode a standardized CD, meaning if you want to burn a
video, it needs to be MPEG burned as a VCD
 
Hi George; I went through the same frustrations as you -
as the last reply mentions, most DVD players will play
VCD. I got great reviews for my player at
http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers.php Suggest you search
for your player - that site also gives some great hints.
BTW, Windows movie maker 2 gives you the files you need
but will not burn a VCD, for that you need some third
party S/W - I'm still on my 30 day free eval of Nero and
will probably buy it - check out www.nero.com
