Question

Can a regular CD-R play video files in a DVD player?

Answer 1

yup. absolutely.

Answer 2

Yeah, you need to look in your CD burning software for the ability to burn a VCD! VCD's will play in any DVD player. They are lower quality than DVDs and can't hold as much.

Also you can burn DivX videos sometimes straight to the disc, but only if your DVD player can play them (would say DivX on the front)
