Here I was hoping I could fool my dvd into playing a vcd, but as it turns out, RCA designed it to read and display vcd's.

DVD players can't be "tricked" into playing VCD's, either they support them or they don't... most made after '98 (I think) support it.

: The picture quality is not as good as a regular dvd, but as good as the video a purchased this summer and better than the four other older copies I have played to death (but just can't seem to throw away). The display is widescreen and you do not miss a thing.

That's good to know, I wondered how the quality compared.


: Finally, the sound is wonderful. Although not thx or 5.1 surround, it is digital and sounds and much better than the tape I got this summer.

Thought it would be, and that alone is almost worth it.


For all who questioned me wanting the VCD's, read this again: "I'll be watching the vcds, not my tapes."

Thanks a lot for the review topmen, I realy appreciate it and have decided to purchase some for myself.

Thanks again,

--the Fiddler
