Are you sure your DVD player is compatible? Check out the DVD compatibility list at www.vcdhelp.com to check for your player.

Well, if I use Nero Burning CD it works fine. Video and sound are there. But thanks for the tip -I'll check it out.

Thanks again.

Are you using VV3.0C? I think vv3.0b had a problem with bit rates. I don't know if that would have anyting to do with it or not, but it's worth upgrading for other reasons.

Are you getting sound if you play the disc on your PC?

I didn't install VCD player on my PC yet so I don't know. I'm not sure if Vegas can do that. Which one would you suggest?

I took this excerpt right from VCDHelp.com's website:

"You can play VCDs with Windows Media Player, insert the VCD in your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM and browse to the MPEGAV folder and double click on the .dat file and associate it with Media Player and open them with that. To play a VCD with menus and still pictures use WinDVD or PowerDVD, insert the VCD and just hit Play. Use a low resolution, like 640x480, on the monitor when watching a VCD to get best quality."

Thanks a bunch.

I used TDK. Interestingly enough, the vcd was Ok when burned by Nero. Will retest tonight.
