Hi Naveen:

I guess you are referring to VCD format.

If you are using kmplayer / mplayer, then the command is 'mplayer vcd://1'

Sometimes you will note that player freezes/crashes after buffering.
If that is so, you can try starting with track 2.
The command then would be 'mplayer vcd://2'

Interestingly, this URL like approach extends to DVD as well.
To play first chapter, you type the command, 'mplayer dvd://1'

For more details and hacks, Abrar is the right person.

thanks
Saifi.
