Hi, I'm a newbie at this and want to know if anyone can tell me a rather inexpensive-ish model of DVD player that can handle CD-R and the like. I want to make VCD's and the one I have can't play them. Thanx for any info.

Hello and welcome to the forums. Let me get this straight. You want to copy DVD to VCD, is that right?
Most DVD players can read CD-R's. What type is your one that can't?

About two thirds of DVD players can play Video CDs. Panasonic, RCA, Samsung, and Sony models play Video CDs. Japanese Pioneer models play Video CDs but American models older than the DVL-909 don't. Toshiba players older than models 2100, 3107, and 3108 don't play Video CDs.
Not all DVD-Video players can read CD-R media. If you want a DVD player that can read CD-R discs, look for a "dual laser" or "dual optics" feature.
