Response to VCD

There are a few options to this. It can be as simple as just turning on the "repeat track" or "repeat disc" mode function on your VCD player. Unfortunately on some players this is standard for CD-audio but for some reason, does not work for VCDs. If you create your own VCDs you can join all playable tracks into one big track then create a menu with 99 items, directing it merely to repeat that one track 99 times on each selection, and directing each menu number to play one after another, hence repeating . This can be done with VCDEasy, maybe Nero, or with newer versions (v. 4) of Sonic MyDVD (that comes bundled with DVD writers and now offers VCD-authoring). I think 99 is the maximum number of items a VCD can contain (as per White Book ver 2.0 rules) so is the limit of how many repeats u can get.

Response to VCD

It's an advanced option, but I believe that if you make the VCD with the VCDeasy program (http://www.vcdeasy.org) it's possible to do this. Mehmet's suggestion will work, but if you are experienced in making VCDs, using VCDeasy is probably a better approach. You'll have to do something like set the Last Play Option or something like that. You should be able to figure it out.
