Dedicated VCD/CD players use infra red lasers, whereas DVD players use red lasers and research is moving towards blue lasers. So it is not possible to play DVDs on VCD players, no matter what the brand. However, most new DVD players in Asia and US can play VCDs, but there is news that newer DVD players in US, may omit this capability.
