When a DVD player says that it can play VCDs, that does not mean it can
necessarily play *homeburned* VCDs. It may be referring to
commercially-pressed VCDs.
In order to play homeburned anything, the DVD player must have a 2nd
laser than can read the dye change of homeburned discs rather than the
pits of commercial discs.
As a rule of thumb, if your DVD player can play homeburned audio CDs,
it should be able to play homeburned video CDs. Can your machine play
homeburned Audio CDs?
