Q 2. Why will a CD-R Disc written by the VDR-3000 not play back in some home VCD or DVD Players?

Some VCD or DVD Players do not support CD-R disc playback, so it cannot recognize the CD-R that’s written by the VDR-3000. See the attached VCD/DVD player list for your reference.

Q3. What is the difference of VCD, HQ-VCD,S-VCD,DVD-Photo and CDDVD format ? VCD: MPEG-1 is a compression format compatible with most of VCD and DVD players. The VCD disc can be played back by most VCD players, DVD players and Microsoft Media Player Software on a PC. Since the VCD has a low resolution and low bit rate 1.15Mbps format that is a good application for long recording times without degrading too much of the image quality. This is ideal for seminars and conference audio/video recording. VCD can record 74

minutes audio/video program on a 650MB CD-R disc.

HQ-VCD: MPEG-1 compression format is compatible with most media players. The HQ- VCD can be played back by most DVD or S-VCD players and Microsoft Media Player software on a PC. HQ-VCD has a low resolution but high bit rate 4Mbps, which is good for recording the active video without blocking effect. The HQ-VCD can record 37 minutes of audio/video on a 650MB CD-R.

S-VCD: MPEG-2 compression format. The S-VCD player or DVD player that supports S-VCD format can playback the S-VCD disc. PC CD-ROM can also playback the S-VCD with the Datavideo auto PC player. The S-VCD has double the resolution compared with VCD and also has a higher bit rate 2.4Mbps. The S- VCD can record 37 minutes of audio/video on a 650MB CD-R.
