PowerDVD not playing a SVCD

[aktayal]

I created a cue/bin using VCDXBUILD from an XML file that I created with TSVC042b.Then I burned this cue/bin to a CD-RW using CDRWIN. Everything seemed to work fine. I got 4 folders on the CD-RW - EXT, MPEG2,SEGMENT,SVCD.

When I tried to run this SVCD in PowerDVD , it says "A disk with unsupported format in drive H:". Whats wrong ? Please help !!

PowerDVD doesnt support autoinsertion for SVCD´s.
Dunno why it cant read the catalogue structure.
Anyway, you can switch it to file mode again and browse the file and add it to the playlist as a normal file.

Hope it helps

PowerDVD can play the MPEG-2 files that are present on the SVCD, but it does not recognise SVCD discs. The only software DVD player that I know of that does play SVCD discs is WinDVD (2.x and 3.0).
