    The VCD I got and tried to play has a .VCD extention. Windows Media Player does not play that file extention. Is there some other software I should get to be able to play all VCD's or at least that file extention?

    Try changing the file extension to mpg.

    VCD movies contain read only files and can't be altered. Also, I am looking for software that will automatically play it so I don't have to change the extention ever time.

    sounds like this is a .bin file that's been re-named to .vcd..

    There is no such thing as a VCD file (at least not VCD as in Video Compact Disc). A VCD is CD, containing files and folders of certain types in a certain structure, burnt to the CD in a specific manner.

    A VCD file, if it is at all in this ball park, might very well, as geek rock suggests, be a bin, ready to be written to a CD to create a VCD
