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. See similar questions...

These types of players will play both discs but they will be clearly marked on the karaoke player that they can play both formats. See similar questions...

Why won't my audio CD play in my CD player?

Ondine Computing - FastEZ CD and DVD Maker
There is a substantial difference between CD-ROM discs and CD-R or CD-RW discs. Because of this, there must be differences in the drives used to read these different types of media. Most currently available CD players are capable of reading CD-R and CD-RW discs, but some older models were only designed for use with commercially produced CD-ROM discs. It may be possible to play some brands of CD-R discs in these older players, but we cannot guarantee success. See similar questions...

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. See similar questions...

I burned some audio CDs and they won't play on my CD player - how come?

Xorys' MP3 FAQ
Make sure you are using CD-R disks, not CD-RW disks - very few CD audio players can recognise CD-RW disks at all. Make sure you are burning single session audio CDs with your software - audio CD players won't, for the most part, recognise data CDs or multi-session CDs. If you are burning single-session audio CDs on CD-R media and they still won't play on your audio CD players, then I'm afraid it looks as if your burner just can't produce disks that your audio players can read.

How can I play my pictures on my CD-i player?

The New International CD-i Association
you can read in question 7.12, it is nearly impossible for the home user to make Photo-CDs. Fortunately, there is good alternative alowing you to place your pictures on CD and view them on a CD-i player. Using Nero Burning Rom version 5.0 and up (available from Ahead Software), you can include still images in a Video-CD compilation.

I have a Video-CD. Why won't it play on my CD-i?

Video-CD on CD-i / The New International CD-i Association
It is known that several so-called Video-CDs exist that do not play on a CD-i player. This is mainly the case with certain titles from China and the Far East. Mostly, this is due to the absence of a CD-i application on the disc. As mentioned before, such a CD-i application is a mandatory requirement for a Video-CD, and a disc that does not include it violates the license terms (but this is often the case with illegal discs for which no license fees were payed in the first place!).
