i remember coming across a program that lets you make vcds just for the dreamcast i cant remember were it was it might have been vcdhelp.com but not sure just try a net search, that is if you have a cd writer.

ok had to go and find it for myself to make sure i wasn`t talkin rubbish and i did. Here is the link to the site the software is freeware there are also progs to play mp3s.

Picture quality on dreamcast is considerably below playing a vcd on a dvd machine. Tendency to frame skipping and juddering.
