I got a RCA DRC220N External DVD player. When purchased it said it was compatible for playing VCD and SVCD.

Tried playing VCD and the sound and picture bounces all over the place.

Cannot find the particular model at the VCDHelp site. Any one got any info on this player? Can it play VCD's properly?

Thanks

So by all means, this should be working, maybe its a CD (Crappy Disc problem), or you're burning it too fast, it could be burning errors, burn at about 6x, i had the same problem and 6x seems to be a decent speed for me to burn at....

try either of the 2 suggestions, they should/will work seeing as the specs of the player are whats needed to play vcd properly
