SVCD, VCD and Philips 612S

[tovarisch]

Hi all,

I own a Philips 612S, and it plays VCD with no problem, on CD-R and CD-RW. But I have several problems with SVCD and tweaked VCDs:
- I cannot forward/rewind on some SCVD.
- When I use a template like Kwag's one, or a modified VCD, it plays nice for one minute or two minutes, but then it starts pausing every few seconds.

I encode films from DIVX with TMPGEnc Plus 2.53.35.130 and burn them with Nero 5.5 and VCDEasy, and I've tried CD-R and CD-RW, 74 and 80min.

Any suggestion? Thank you!

Yea, check and see if it can play SVCDS....some dvd players can play CDRs but not SVCDS....that would suck

Yes, It can play VCD and SVCD, burned on CDR and CDRW, but on some SVCD I cannot rewind nor forward. (Just a typo, I wrote SCVD, but was SVCD... :)

Thank you anyway!

Search the forum using the keyword 'Philips' and you'll find several threads regarding the FF/RW problem on SVCD's. It's a firmware problem. Depending on the exact model of your player (DVD612/0??) it might be possible to do a firmware update.

Again, search this forum for links.
