distribute player sofware on a VCD?

[bengtl]

Hi
I usually send my films to a lot of people. many of them are not used to view VCD and do not have a stand alone dvdplayer. So my question is if it would be possible to put a player software on the VCD someware? The purpouse would be to make it possible to play the VCD in a simple way for the user.

Yes, you can. I even think there's a guide on how to put other stuff (besides the video) on a VCD here at DVDRHelp.

1.First you have to use Nero or VCDEasy to author and burn.
2.Second I recommend I-VCD Player(free in Tools)as the player.
3.And finally when you author using Nero or VCDEasy put the players' install.exe file in the root folder,not in the VCD,CDi,MPEGAV,etc. folder.

Sorry...Baldrick must of pulled I-VCD player,try Zoom player it's free also.
The install.exe file should not interfere with playback.

You can play the dat file on a VCD with windows media player.
