I highly recommend the Philips DVD players - so far they have played everything including generic MPEG-2 placed on either CD or DVD recordable (and rewriteable) media. Very inexpensive units but have outperformed much more expensive players. > If not I would try dvdauthor.

The problem I see with that approach is that SVCDs (and VCDs) use mode 2 form 2 sectors which are larger than the 2KB sectors that DVD media supports. I do not believe it is possible to create DVDs using the SVCD format (that was something I wanted to do but it does not appear as if the media or recorders support M2F2 sectors with DVD media). Good Luck! Steven Schultz
