I have many cds not running under any WIN2k-machine, but running without any problems under WIN XP using PowerDVD. I believe they are all in SVCD-Format.
I tried lots of codecs (e.g. NIMO Codec Pack), but no one is able to decode the films, there's already an error: "Format not supported...." (by PowerDVD).
You shouldn't get a codec error if you truly have SVCD. PowerDVD loads the MPEG-2 codec you need for playing. Look at the contents of the disc. Do you see a MPEG2 directory? If you do, is there at least one file in it named AVISEQ01.MPG? Is this file in the MPEGAV directory instead of MPEG2? If you can't find that file at all on the disc, you don't have SVCD. The problem could be that you are trying to play DivX on the Win2K PC and don't have the right DivX codec.
