VCD problem.....won't play ...'coz of Realplayer

[mike230652]

I lent 2 vcd to a m8....instead of opening the dat file with windows media (like I told him ) he tried to open with Realplayer. Now I can't get them to ply , they both have Realplayer logos all over them , is there any way to convert them back to windows media player ...or do I have 2 new coasters???????/

Any help greatly appreciated. Mike

This is an annoying problem with RealPlayer. As soon as you open the player, it takes control of all formats it can play (even when it can't really play them).
Open Mediaplayer and go to Options (Settings), then File Formats, and select ALL and then OK. That will give back control to Mediaplayer when playing VCD's.
