gurusi Aug 31, 2002, 11:12 AM saw a ps1 thing to play vcd's -it was a black box which attached to the ps1 to play vcds is there a ps2 version?
+ has anyone bought one for the ps1???? if so is the quality good?
Int3g_Type_R Aug 31, 2002, 11:15 AM nope, at least not yet
handyguy Aug 31, 2002, 02:22 PM I don't see the point in it really.
Crescendoll Aug 31, 2002, 02:31 PM I guess...if you dont have a dvd player that supports vcd..and you wanna play vcd's
xoutlawx Aug 31, 2002, 06:50 PM Well none yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if we saw one come out in the future.
handyguy Aug 31, 2002, 08:22 PM Yeah, usually we nuke these vcd topics too.
Really, I dont see the point as the PC your wrote the message with plays vcds just fine & free, find a player at download.com search there for 'vcd' eaaaaaasy.
konga123 Aug 31, 2002, 08:41 PM yeah but handyguy, some of us really can't stand sitting at our PC desks to watch a movie and would much prefer to sit at their sofa with a remote control on a big screen TV with sum food and a leg rest <goes off day dreaming...lol>
I assume alot of people are like me, and don't find sitting a PC, as "relaxing" as on the nice big sofa with some pop and a remote;)

grandmaster F Aug 31, 2002, 09:30 PM yeah, i love to watch divx and vcd on my widescreen tv :), watching movies on the pc is crap
gurusi Sep 01, 2002, 06:50 AM that is the reason for my post - lookin for the best option to play vcds on my tv - i get a bad back sitting in this horrible chair - i wanna veg out in comfort :)
thanks for the posts
ps2wiz Sep 01, 2002, 10:01 AM There is a vcd player that lets youp lay like a 20 minutes tops. But it's not worth it.
grandmaster F Sep 01, 2002, 10:25 AM i remember that one, its almost 2 years old, that jadepsx thing
bclark93 Sep 01, 2002, 10:36 AM get an Apex-1100W ... plays every format (dvd,vcd,svcd,mp3) only bad opinion is that it cant play divx.
hooks right up to the tele, and its cheap to ;) ($60)
:idea:
handyguy Sep 01, 2002, 11:46 AM Yep, I also usually suggest getting the Apex 1500 (this has lcd screen). Plays whatever you throw at it. If you get a lucky serial nbr you can hack it for some interesting benefits.
VCD on a widescreen tv? Doesn't that look kinda blocky?
garagekru Sep 01, 2002, 02:22 PM nope vcd on a widescreen looks just fine
bclark93 Sep 02, 2002, 01:52 PM LOL! Like Handyman mentions about the Apex 1500, there also exists an excellent firmware hack for the Apex 1100W (1MB drive version)
.. the flashing of the drive will disable macrovision and allow you to play any region dvd. :tup:
