Philips DVD701 | CDR | X | X | Was able to make a 55 minute video-cd with four compose of short movies, as well as making a menu so you can switch between movies.I used Memorex CD-RW Platium, and works like a charm. Tried using Memorex CD-Rs to make movie.but without success, but I was able to play home-made audio cds though. I used Dazzle video studio to create the movie, and burned it using Adaptec easy Cd 4x I was able to play all the movies without any skips or pauses |

Philips DVD865AT | CDR | CDRW | X | Works fine with VCDs created with Adaptec EZCD Creator v4.x. VCD NTSC MPEG-1 files created using DVMPEG v5.0 work fine; however, the VCD NTSC MPEG-1 setting for Ligos 3.0 results in "Disk Read Error". |
