Hello, When I build a VideoCD then the actual MPEG data files are stored in such a way (usually a .DAT extention) that they cannot be easily played in a regular computer. My suggested feature is to create a second name for the same file in the root of the CD which is an easy to use filename like "Vacation 2002.mpeg". What I mean can be compared best to what is done in UNIX as a 'hard link'. I've seen CDROMs which appear to have more data on them then what should be possible. I've for example seen CDs which have several files of 600MB on them. As far as I know this is done by doing something illegal to the TOC of the CDROM. I think this same trick could be used to implement the mentioned feature. I'm not quite sure if this is possible in such a way that most regular VCD/DVD players would still accept the disks. Best regards, Niels Basjes. P.S. Please let me know what you think of this.
