*VCD supported by most of the media player software if you're using the physical disc , compatible [[Wikipedia:Comparison_of_disc_image_software|virtual disc image mount software]] with open disc option or directly open various virtual disc images.DAT file. But If you have a VCD packaged inside a CD-image, for example; the kinds of Compact Disc formats supported by in some cases VLCmedia player can play this directly without you having to mount it or extract it such as; CDRWIN's BIN/CUE format, cdrdao's TOC format, and a limited set of Nero (NRG) formats.<refname=VLCCDImages>[https://wiki.videolan.org/What_can_VLC_do%3F/#Compact_Disc_.28CD.29_Images VLC Wiki: Compact Disc (CD) Images]</ref>.

:*[[Wikipedia:Photo_CD|Photo CD]] playing is possible with VLC or MPC-HC if you're using physical disc, but do not expect mounting the encrypted disc image on to a virtual drive then using open disc option to work.
:*[[Wikipedia:Compact_Disc_Digital_Audio|Audio CD]] raw .bin files do not supported by playback is possible; if you have a CD-DA/Audio CD packaged inside a CD-image, in some cases VLC media player can play this directly without you having to mount it or MPC-HC extract it such as; CDRWIN's BIN/CUE format, cdrdao's TOC format, and a limited set of Nero (encrypted or notNRG); formats.<ref name=VLCCDImages></ref> otherwise you need to insert the physical disc to play it<ref>[https://wiki.videolan.org/CD/#Audio_CDs VLC wiki: Audio CDs]</ref>, mounting encrypted disc image on to a virtual drive probably gonna fail anyway. Another option for this using something like "Audacity" software to import the .BIN files (File - Import - Raw Data... - Signed 16-bits PCM, 2 channel stereo, 44100 Hz) and, then, export as .WAV.<ref>[https://superuser.com/questions/258679/how-do-i-play-bin-and-cue-files-in-vlc-media-player superuser: How do I play .bin and .cue files in VLC media player software?]</ref>
*DVD playback and menus supported by various media player software like [https://nightlies.videolan.org/ VLC] and [https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc/tags MPC-HC], however other ones like [https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv mpv] and [https://github.com/libretro/libretro-mpv libretro-mpv] do not support DVD menus<ref>[https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/4577 mpv player: DVD menu support issue page]</ref>, so there is no support for [[Virtual_reality#VR_game_room_simulations|EmuVR]] either. A large number of commercial DVDs are encrypted which uses a range of encryption and copy protection techniques like [[Wikipedia:DVD_region_code|RC]], [[Wikipedia:DVD_region_code#Region-code_enhanced|RCE]], [[Wikipedia:Analog_Protection_System|APS]], [[Wikipedia:Content_Scramble_System|CSS]], [[Wikipedia:User_operation_prohibition|UOPs]] and [[Wikipedia:ARccOS_protection|ARccOS]]; using plugins like [https://www.videolan.org/developers/libdvdcss.html libdvdcss]<ref>Get libdvdcss compiled library from [https://download.videolan.org here], then move the downloaded libdvdcss-2.dll file to VLC or any other media player software installation folder to work with libdvdcss.</ref>, <abbr title="These ones already comes with VLC media player software, you can see these in your 'VLC/plugins/access' directory.">libdvdread and libdvdnav</abbr> for VLC may help with playing these encrypted discs. Another option is decrypting and properly ripping these discs using [https://www.videohelp.com/software/sections/decrypters-dvd-rippers DVD decrypter software].
