Toss Tosh vcd playback

My main player is the all conquering Tosh 230 multi region.( old butt ugly style )
I have aquired a vcd copy of kill bill and the Tosh made this almost unwatchable. sound ok put pic was picsolated (?) and slowed down in the fight sequences.
So I tried it upstairs on my new Cyberhome 400 and not a problem. Pic was almost dvd quality.
Although my tosh 230 has a much better dvd pic (blacks are black and not Cyberhome gray ish ) and will play scratched rental discs which the Cyberhome doesnt. The Tosh is p*** poor at vcds.
I suspect this is due to the age of the software on the Tosh but has anyone hade the same problem.

Ps my chipped Tosh 230 has a screen saver but it has never worked. I suspect this may be because its chipped. Does yours work? ( purchased from Richer Sounds )

So. You`re playing pirated movies on VCD..-in a DVD player? Isnt like like playing PSone games in a PS2? They say patience is a virtue. Wait for the DVD release on R2 or (assuming you`ve got multiregion), import the R1.No better still go to the local mutiplex durin the your next day off (matinees are cheaper) and view the movie as Tarantino would want you too._PK
