Hi i have no problem when i convert SVCD to DVD but when i use VCD they only play on certain players any ideas? maybe i need a different bit of software?

The problem isn't the software it is a VCD.

Putting VCD on a DVD is a very long process and i know cause i've been trying to find a fail proof way for 1,5 years now. And i can tell you i think there isn't. VCD have the tendency to run out of sync when you burn then to DVD-VCD or at least 90% if you use them without any preperation (reencode the audio with tmpgenc to normal VCD audio, see the sticky topic about audio/video sync). And afterwards 20-25% still give troubles, sometimes it helps to reencoded the whole VCD to VCD again but sometime the only thing that helps is make a completely new VCD form scratch.

The bottom line is this: Burn VCD on DVD is a time consuming and irritating process.
