: The reason I ask is because I bought a new one last month mainly for the reason it said it could play VCD's.
: I just found out it doesn't (false advertising), but I found out it can be hacked.
It says they can play VCDs, are you trying to play legitimate bought VCDs (such as the official releases from the Far East) or home burnt CD-Rs recorded in VCD format? The two are massively different and if its the CD-R ones it can't play, its not false advertising at all.
