RE: apex ad 1100-wb is it goob enought to buy?

Hi Tigga,

Basically depends what VCD you have tried? Was it a home done one, or a bought one?????

Home done ones have to be done correctly, if the file has been downloaded as a .avi file (the norm), burning using nero as a VCD, you shouldn`t have a problem, because nero will convert and encode the .avi to VCD.

If you are copying a DVD to VCD, it has to be done correctly using various hacks to rip the dvd (ie remove the copywrite), encode it, and join the audio/video files together, then finally burn it. Basically 4 pieces of software.

But back to your problem, it should play bought VCD`s no problem, because it will play VCD`d done on cd-r/cd-rw discs?

dop us a line if you need some more help, barra........

Hi Al,

I bought one a couple of weeks ago, on the assumption it would play VCD`s etc. Glad to say it payed off ;-)

It has played 2 cd movies I burnt myself with Nero on the VCD format, and also another movie on SVC.

It did however not want to play disc 2, But played 1-3 of a SVCD I borrowed off a mate!?, more than likely a fault with the disc rather than the machine. I highly recommend it as a DVD player, it also has a lot of good features found on a lot higher priced machines.

Hope this helps Barra.......

P.S. still looking for a multi-region hack if anyone out there knows of one, Cheers.....
