Will CD-i play DVD discs?

The New International CD-i Association
No. A DVD is a different kind of disc, based on a high density format. It requires a new physical laser unit to read the discs. A CD-i player can only read discs based on the normal infra-red laser technique: compact discs or CDs. It is unlikely that a combination playback device for CD-i and DVD will ever become available, nor will it be possible to upgrade a CD-i player to play DVD discs since this should require the replacement of the entire disc read-out mechanism.

Will a DVD-player play CD-i discs?

The New International CD-i Association
A DVD-Video player cannot play CD-i discs, since it does not include all of the CD-i logics such as the required operating system in ROM, the CPU and the appropriate audio and video decoding ICs. Most DVD-Video players however can play Video-CDs, but they use an internal playback application instead of the CD-i application that is stored on every Video-CD disc. Hence, CD-i specific additions such as menu screens or subtitles will not be shown.

How can I back up files on CD-ROM?

Apple II Csa2 FAQs: 1Main-Start, Part 1/25 - Apple
Compact disk recording opens up many possibilities. Obviously, archiving software is one of them. Another is being able to record audio. In my studio, I've placed a lot of important material on analog tape; and, unlike the diskette situation, there is no doubt of the imminent danger of degradation. Burning the audio to CD would maintain the original quality, with the added bonus of random access. CDR also opens up business opportunities.

Will karaoke CD+G discs play in my DVD karaoke player?

No. Well actually yes, but not correctly. A CD+G disc will generally play the music on a DVD karaoke player, but no words will be displayed. This is because the '+G' part of a CD+G is the graphics layer which only works on dedicated karaoke CD+G players. Some karaoke players are also combination CD+G and DVD karaoke players. These types of players will play both discs but they will be clearly marked on the karaoke player that they can play both formats.

FAQ - CBSRMT Show of the Week - CBS Radio Mystery Theater - ...
They will work with any player that can play normal OTR rates like 32k/22kHz. The Volt seems to the the darling of the OTR community. Older players like the MpTrip require CD-style 44.1kHz sampling rates, so they choke on OTR. And of course they will play on any PC-based player like WinAmp. They will not, I promise you, play on your stereo: they are MP3 not audio CD.
