Bang & Olufsen BeoVision DVD Player

Hi Everyone

No. I do not have one of these unneccessary expensive machines. Can`t afford it!

However, I have a friend with one. B & O (the company) reckon it will play Video CDs, I have tried it with a number of different programme versions and none will work.

May I ask if anyone has any idea what might play on this expensive piece of junk. All my friend wishes to do is to produce a Video CD or DVD of his digital pictures and make a photo CD.

regards

Grim

I use Nero to make VCD`s. When you make a VCD you can add video or photos.

Is this an old model? Model Number? Are you sure it plays CD-R`s?? Try a music CD-R

Thank you Micoman for replying.

The B&O DVD is incorporated in the very latest B&O equipment.

I tried Nero for my friend and it does not work. I have a feeling that B&O themselves have no idea what does work in their dvd player apart from MP3 and normal movies.

For the price that my friend paid for his equipment, some £6.000+ one would expect it to play almost anything, but it doesn`t. If it doesn`t recognise what the DVD is that you feed to it, it simply spits it out with absolutely no information why it is doing so. Really awful gear.
