I burn it as VCD 2.0 but i can't see it!!

[_Quinlan_]

I burned a cd as VCD 2.0 on VCDEasy and when I tried it on my DVD player (Mustek V300) i couldn't see anything!?
The DVD had a light saying that it was reading a VCD, i could even control it but i didn't have image?

I saw that if i record a cd as VCD 2.0 it will be recorded as MPEG1. Is that it??

Can anyone help me??

I'm not faimiliar with VCDeasy, while I prefer VCDwizard (another GUI upon VCDimager).
I suggest you recreate the VCD (maybe something wend wrong in the write-process), I also should recomend you to use CDRdao instead of winCDR or Nero (the last 2 burners 'sucks', excuse my language ). If you get VCDwizard (you can get is at http://www.labdv.com/) you also should search the HELP for cdrdao - in there cdrdao has been explained (a bit).
If you wrote the vcd using WINcdr which your cracked, then be sure WINcdr didn't create a "coaster", which is an unusable cd!

What does one have to do to make sure one doesn't make a (beer) coaster? There's no icon with the coaster option.....

And still i was able to create a coaster after the burn process was completed succesfully with CDRwin

does it play on your computer, either drive?

nope. But the stange thing is that i once burnt a cd upto 70% which i can read with the PC. Not the standalone DVD player.
