My copy of scooby doesnt play correctly in my panasonic dvd player because scooby is an svcd and the panasonic dont support this.I expect thats why your matsui doesnt see this format.
Power dvd should support it though.I have powerdvd4xp and scooby works fine on that.
Alternatively if you have a cd writer look at the site www.vcdhelp.com and that shows how to convert svcd to vcd or using a "header" trick to tell your player its a vcd.Try it?:cool:

nemo's codec pack is pretty good too ;)
I have a VCD that won't play on Media Player. The .dat file doesn't play. I try copying the .dat file to the hard disk, but it won't play. Is this VCD ... SVCD? My apologies if the answer seems too obvious, I'm new at this.
Media player sucks...try the player in the link of my previous post.
