I borrowed a CD with some film clips on. The clips had the formats was mpeg1 and WMV with 320x280 reselution.
I tried the CD in my DVD player, Samsung M205, and it played all the files, including WMV
I think the CD was burned in mode 1 (Data CD)
I don't know so much about wmv, but I think it's based on mpeg 4. Will mpeg 4 compress the video even more than mpeg 1/2.
So, will wmv create better quality than KVCD

MPEG-4 is better as the normal MPEG Standart. WMV with the same bitrate is a lot better than a KVCD but I don't think you can play it on your DVD Player.
Perhaps the files have the end *.wmv but it's an mpeg-file.

No, my player does NOT play divX
The player is about 2 years old
It can play (X)(S)VCD and mp3.
I don't know why those files could be played, the only problem was that it had no sound when I played them on my DVDPlayer...
The wmv files was only about 10 secs each, I miss mayby 3 secs in the beginning of the file. But the quality was very good

WMP says this file is a Windows Media Video 9 video codec

Windows Movie Maker 1 or2 Windows Media Encoder.
That the best and fastest Programms. They encode WMV Videos with a better SVCD Quality on one CD in realtime. I've test ist. But I can't believe it.
