Ah, ok. Sorry for the noise. I had never seen a VCD before. I just tried to do xine vcd:// one one of the computers and it worked perfectly. However, under windows, what I did was simply to open the disc in the explorer, look at the files, right-click on the largest file to open it with windows media player, or drag and drop it to copy it on the hard drive, without any special tool. I find it a bit deceptive that linux lets me mount the filesystem but not access the files. It would be actually better, I feel, if mount would refuse to work on a vcd and display some informative failure message rather than mount an unreadable filesystem...
