The DVD player probably won't support this - hence the problem.

Couple of options:

VCD, SVCD or DVD.

Your player may or may not play the first two - it *should* play the last as
long as it can read the burnt discs. I'm not sure what are the best tools
to go ahead making videos in those formats, but I'm sure there are some that
do around here.

How did you burn the CD?

If you burnt the CD using "Finish Movie/save to CD" and with "Best fit
to recordable CD" selected in MM2, I am afraid that this CD would not be
played back in most set-top players (except some HighMAT-compatible
players). MM2 saves video to CD in HighMAT(High-performance Media Access
Technology) format. (ref: http://tinyurl.com/43cms;
http://tinyurl.com/45teh) For making a Vedio (movie) CD which is
playable in set-top players you have to burn it with VCD authoring
softwares such as Nero.

Hope this helps, good luck!!
