-Dream VCD addon.
-VCD utitlity disc.
-Remote Control.

When I first recieved this, I was hyper. I was so excited that I could play all my VCD movies on my Dreamcast, and on the road (couldnt bring my VCD player, costs too much). But after I inserted the infra-red part into the controller spot, booted up Terminator 2: SE, I found that it was not quite what I expected.

Video
The quality is alright, a little downsized from PC and Home VCD players, but not too much. Unforchanetly, all of my movies that I tested ran slow. On a speed percentage scale, I'd say they ran about 70%-80%. If you are tollerant like I am, no problem.

Audio
Just like watching a VCD on your Home/PC, the sound is alright, nothing special. However, when the Dreamcast gets a little heated, the movie will start to skip, and after it recovers the audio wont be inline with the video (I mean the audio will be like 1 second off when its supposed to play).

Setup
I liked the remote and infra-red remote control. They are built kinda cheap, but hey, it works.

Overall
If you have some money to spend, and your tolerant, this is a good buy.
