I can confirm there were SE VCDs produced in Asia. I owned a set that unfortunately has been lost in the sands of time...

I remember seeing them on ebay around 2000/2001 or so and thinking whhaaaaa?? It would be an interesting thing to add to the old collection. Around that time I actually made some vcds of video I captured before dvd burners were affordable.  As I recall they were mpeg1 and supposed to be around the same resolution as vhs but I remember thinking they didn't look very good.

VCD is, hands-down, the worst home video format ever.

Even CED is preferable to VCD.

Yuck, yuck, yuck.

I don't mean to add to the clutter of this, but I assume this was posted to the wrong thread? Meanwhile, I'm still saving pennies to send 3TB of HD down to you, Poita.
