    Even if you could why would you want to? The average price of a dvd player that can play vcd and svcd is around 40 bucks.

    There are a few players that can be firmware upgraded to accept SVCD but not many. Look up your player in the DVD Hacks section, over there <-<-<-.

    The only reason is because I won a really good Panosonic DVD player
    but it doesn't play (S)VCDs.

    I thought I could get it chipped instead of trying to sell it.

    Cheers for the advice guys anyway.
