From: "Klaus Staedtler" <staedtler-przyborskiatweb.de> 

Chris Wohlgemuth has ported the VCDTools to OS/2

Video CDs are ordinary CDROMs in a special format which contain MPEG-1
encoded video. For long times this type of CD was mostly known in Asia
whereas Video CDs and the according players were mostly unknown in the USA
and Europe. Since almost every DVD player can also play VCDs (and since
the recordable Video DVD for a reasonable price seems still far away) VCDs
are getting more popular everywhere. VCDs use a special type of CD sectors
(mode 2 form 2) and have a special form of the filesystem.
