Playing an XCD

[nailzer]

I burned an XCD movie to a cd-r from a bin/cue file and I ended up with a .dat file and an RAR file with something in it on the cd-r. What do I do with it now? My Apex AD-660 brings up the MP3 menu when I try to play it.

Not all DVD players support XVCD

It's not an XVCD.. My Apex plays an XVCD fine. This is a new format, XCD. I can find no information about how to properly burn it.

I think that this is what you are talking about...

Isn't this just a way to fit 800 MB of another kind of file (other than an S/VCD mpg file) on a CD? Is this a VCD or SVCD compiant stream?

It's supposed to be a better way to fit an entire movie on one cd-r, but I can't find a thing about playing it. I've found 3-4 movies in this format on usenet.
