Hey,
I calle apex to ask them if their pd-100 played vcd, or dvd-r, they said NO it only plays professional media. Which auto discludes both mp3 and svcd, so they are contradicting their packaging! Their website used to not incluide vcd, but magically less than an hour ago, vcd is now listed lol!
So does it or does it not support vcd?

You may want to check out the DVD Players section of this site.
The 2nd review states that it does indeed play VCD and CD-R media, BUT I noticed several problem areas. You may want to consider a different Apex player. I was stuck between the AD-1200 and the AD-1100W for a while, but finally decided on a 1100W when I saw the "right version" at a local Wal-Mart. The only draw for me on the 1200 was the keypad hack (but you -- again -- have to have the "right version" of the player).
Definitely check out www.nerd-out.com The actual site is undergoing construction, but the forums contain a WEALTH of information. I followed the advice there and could never thank those guys enough.
As you'll see, there is a large community of Apex owners and the players are being hacked left and right. Keypad commands and firmware updates have disabled region coding and macrovision, and in some cases players have been altered to where they will play homegrown media that they orginally wouldn't... and they WON'T tell you that at customer service.
