Burned VCD, what does it look like on CD?

[Si 2 Si]

I just made a VCD and everything during the process went perfectly. Went to pop it into my home DVD player and the DVD player didnt like it. I looked in the CD I made and there are a bunch of folders and odd files that I dont recognize on there. Should there be a *.vcd file on there? I have a large file sized *.dat file, but nothing that specifies a VCD. I'm wondering if there was a burning mishap, or maybe my DVD player can't play VCDs? It is an older one, so I'm wondering if thats it.

Any help is appreciated.

if the dat file is in the mpegav file that good...
have you tried burning on a cd-rw? they are often more compatible
did you check out the dvd player list? it might give you soe hints as to why it doesn't work

I have no idea but did it work in your computer???

This will bump you anyhow. I am sorry I have no answer.

Thanks guys; and yes, the dat file is in the mpegav folder. I'll try again with a CDRW, but I'm begining to think thats its my DVD player. I'll check the list of compatibility. thanks!
