    Hey guys,

    I purchased a Ulead DVD Picture Show to create slides shows. The VCDs created, play fine using my stand alone DVD player and TV. On the PC they play OK only if I use Power DVD or similar software. When using Microsoft Media Player or other VCD player software, it display a screen saying:VCD 2.0 PLEASE TURN PBC ON and stops. No slide show.

    Because I want to send the VCDs to non-computer-litterate people, I do want them to place the VCD in the drive and play using Media Player without any fuss.

    Any of you can help me with this?

    Cheers,

    IIRC Media player doesnt have full VCD support, and doesn't support the menus (PBC = PlayBack Controls) which are being used to show the pictures.

    I think that PBC is set when you make the disc. having never used the ulead s/w you mention i dont know where these options are, but under nero you would have to check the enable menu box.
