i just got this dvd player, and it seems excellent for the money £70
it plays r1 discs straight from the box, but i haven`t been able to get a
vcd or svcd to play yet, if i switch the player of and back on with a
vcd in the tray it does play for a milli sec, but then spits it out.
does any one know a hack to enable vcd playback?
