I got a set of Max Headroom videos.
Many of them are in SVCD format,
others in VCD. None will play on my
computers, or at work. I visited a site and
got to see the video, but no audio.

I'm unfamiliar with this format. They seem to
be MPEG files, bigger than the 700MB limit
I thought CDs had.
They seem to be ordinary CDR disks, and I
can view the file listings, but not the videos.

Do these require a CD-DVD drive to be read?
Do I have to purchase a new drive?
Does DIVX have the necessary codecs?
Why did I have picture but no audio?
 
SVCD are MPEG-2 files. so you need a DVD decoder installed to view them.
PowerDVD and WinDVD are the most popular.
