I am attempting to play a VCD created using Toast.  This disk will play using a very old version of VLC 0.5.3 on Linux but when I try to play it using .7.2 on aMac or Windows system it does not play and I get the following messages:
main debug: adding playlist item `vcd://D:@1' ( vcd://D:@1 )

Can anyone please tell me how I can play this disk or what the problem might be?

Thanks,
Ira
