Post subject:  [CLD-D504] Video CD

Hello
I have a CLD-D504. The manual show that vcds is supported on this player. The player works on every level. When I load a vcd it shows it reading/playing the video cd but there is no sound or video on screen. It plays a regular cd with no problem at all. Am I wrong about what I been reading in the manual, or should it play it?

Thanks

You are confused; what the player supports is CD Video, which is different from Video CD
CD Video is a CD with 5~ minutes of laserdisc-format video, and 20 minutes of CD audio tracks
Video CD is digital video compressed by MPEG1
While some LD players (mostly karaoke) support Video CD, the D504 is not one of them

Thanks for the reply. I assumed the 2 formats were the same.

Pioneer CLD-D504 is CD Video only, few Combi DVD/LD (and some Asia Karaoke units from Pioneer and Panasonic) were able to play MPEG-1 Video CDs.
