First, make sure that the disc isn't a DVD! For example two of the discs in How to be a R.E.A.L. Success are DVDs. If the disc is a CD, first try playing it in another machine. If it still does not work, please e-mail us at CustomerCare@MMPink.com or call us toll-free at 1-888-556-2308.

For DVD and VCD, with appropriate software, will play on your computer, but computer will not play any tyeps of CDG.

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.

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.

Yes, you can. However, there are some CD players that are not compatible with CD-RW media because of its lower reflectivity. Check your player's user guide for compatibility with CD-RW media.

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.

No. karaoke DVD and karaoke CD+G discs are different formats. They will only play in the same karaoke player if it is a combination DVD and CD+G karaoke player. The only discs that will work in a CD+G karaoke player are CD+G discs (also known as CDG, CD G or anything like that).

For Video CD, your DVD player must be capable of playing VideoCD 2.0 discs. Check the specifications page in the instructions included with your DVD player to see if the VCD format is supported. Your DVD player must be compatible with the type of DVD or CD disc used to record your title. Many DVD players are not compatible with some brands of -R, -RW, +R or +RW discs. Your DVD player must support the speed at which you burned your media.

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.

Most DVD-audio discs are compatible with DVD-Video players. To provide compatibility, most DVD-Audio discs are including Dolby Digital (some also include DTS) audio tracks that satisfy the DVD-Video specification. These tracks are playable on DVD-Video players. A DVD album, which includes these features, will carry the DVD-Audio and DVD-Video logo. However, a DVD-Video player will not recognize and play the ultra-high fidelity PCM and MLP encoded audio tracks on a DVD-Audio disk.

The audio presentation portion of our demo is presented as CD Audio. If you have a CD Player option for your computer, you will be able to hear the demo at your computer. Otherwise, any CD player will play the audio tracks of our demo CD.

No, you must import a CD to a Kaleidescape Server before you can play it. You can import a CD with the Movie Player 2, the Music Player, or the now-discontinued Reader.

All commercial DVD's will. All non-commercial DVD's are DVD+R and will play in virtually all newer DVD players.

If you want to put many of Roy's lectures onto one CD and play them back in the car, at home or on your walkman, it's probably best to buy MP3 audios.

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.

The term CD-ROM is used for all types of usage of a CD in computer applications. A CD-ROM can contain various filesystems (like ISO-9660, Joliet, Apple HFS, Unix, etc.) or programs for a wide variety of computer systems (Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh, Linux, Free BSD, Solaris, BeOS, etc.). A CD-ROM that was made for one particular operating system, cannot be used on another system. There is no such thing as the "CD-ROM system".

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.

The mothertime CD is not a DVD. It is a computer disk only. It's saved on that disk in the Xvid format, which can be played by a variety of different media players such as Winamp which was included on the CD-R. People with computers that are not running Windows may have to download a program which will allow them to run it. Mac, Linux Xvid is very similar to Divx, but is open source rathern than copyrighted software.

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. Such a disc with your photos can then be played on CD-i players (it includes the Philips Video-CD on CD-i 4.1.1 application), but also on PCs, on Video-CD 2.

Yes, a CDG Karaoke disk will play in any standard CD Player, However, the song lyrics will not be displayed since only a CDG player can read the graphics track.
