CD-i vcd's not on dvd

Anything relating to CD-i can be discussed in this forum. From the multiple hardware iterations of the system to the sofware including games, reference, music and Video CDs. Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

CD-i vcd's not on dvd

Post by Trev » Mon Jul 18, 2011 12:25 am

Are there any vcd titles that have yet to appear on DVD? Also, are there any w/any extras? For example, one of my James Bond vcd's has an informational booklet similar to the ones that the dvd releases got years later.

Though not published by Philips, The 1997 short film* "Ghosts" (starring Michael Jackson) comes to mind. Kinda shocked it isn't on DVD, except in heavily edited "music video" form.

*38 minutes.

The Star Trek ones (at least the 3 I own at present) seem to have info booklets just like the Bond movies. Any others?

Hi Trev, ''Electric Dreams'' is an exclusive videocd release. A great early 1980's film, when computers were just coming into their own!
