Playing MPeg-2 CDRoms

May I ask if anyone has actually tried to play a MPeg2 CDRom on any DVD Player please?

I have read that the Yelo will do this but there was no actual example in the reports saying this could be done.

Thank you.

Check out www.vcdhelp.com for a whole load of info. I think they are called SuperVCD SVCD. It depends on your player I suppose.

Forget this request please I now know, having just bought one, that the Kiiro-838d does play Mpeg2`s very well. By the way I do not think that SuperVCD and MPeg2 are the same?

Super VCD is a standard for playing MPEG2 off a CD rather than a DVD. The MPEG2 stream is however at a lower bitrate since transfer speeds form a CD are lower, hence lower quality.
