    Ok, i'm a lil new so i kinda need help...It says on my DVD player which I just got last night that It can play DVD-R, DVD-RW, VCD, CD-R, CD-RW and all that. So I wanted to try to make a movie of one that I had downloaded on Kazaa (Incubus Concert) but when I thought I had it burnt right on my CD-R it didn't work....any help with this would be gretly appreciated

    I think it could be the media that you are using some media might not be perfect in your dvd player.

    Well you said a verbatim CD-RW disk right. Try cd-r media and see if there is any change!

    what file format is it in? you can't just put an .avi file onto cd and expect your player to play it.. you must first encode in TMPGenc, and then copy to cd using Nero, VCDeasy, etc..

    I use Nero to burn some of my vcd's too and I find it excellent. VCDeasy should have worked though so thats a little strange!
