When I tried to play a VCD with QuickTime, the QT window opens with no image, the play indicator moves and the spinning beachball spins and spins and spins. You can't even do a force quit. On the surface, it seems illogical that you can't play a VCD on the computer that just produced it(-: Enter VideoLan or FreeVCD. Eric -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
