I was wondering if it is possible to make VCD's that will play on my DVD player with Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4 Deluxe? Say I downloaded a TV show and wanted to burn it and watch it in my stand alone player, could I do that? If not,does anyone know if the free version of Nero (version 5) will do the job correctly. Thanks.

In theory, yes, you can do this. However, several DVD players do not handle CD-R well or at all. Please go to www.vcdhelp.com and check the Compatibility List for your DVD player before you get started. If your player doesn't like CD-R media, you'll have to burn to CD-RW if you want any chance of being able to read it.
