Can I burn a disc that will play music in a CD player and video in a DVD player?

Question

I want to be able to burn a disc that, when you put it in a CD player, it plays like a normal CD. But when you put it into a DVD player, it can show a menu that lets you play videos or a photo slideshow. I remember these discs being very popular in the late 90s, with the ability to put the disc into your CD-ROM and view pictures of the musicians and such. Can this be done with a standard DVD-RW drive? If so, please tell me how, and point me to some software that lets me set the disc up that way! Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Yes, you can burn both video and music on a cd, not a dvd. Both cd roms and dvd players will be able to play them. Remember, tho, that video uses space like crazy, so watch your available disc space as you go. I don't know which burning program you're using, but nerovision express and nero burning rom should be able to perform your desired tasks.
