FINALLY FOUND how to display time with no special software

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Video CD : One Thread

this email was sent to me earlier today. And i thank this person for it as i have verifed that it does indeed work. I have trested it on my two dvd players Pioneer 606d and 525(both all region). I hoping this same method will work on other dvd players as well. Post your result here. Here is what exactly to do. Put in your vcd. Most players will then say its a vcd. NOW before you push play, push the "previous" button on the remote or the "rewind" button on the player itself. the vcd will change to a time display and will automatically start playing.--Doug

I've just found something new. Just pop a VCD disk and right before it show PBC, press the previous button on the DVD player and it will show CD-1 for about 1-2 second and then it will switch to VCD and play with time display.-----kytin@semidice.com
