Well turns out the player still have problems. After playing video for several minutes, playback hangs. If it's a videocd, playback continues after fast forward or play/pause. If it's a game, you usually can return to the menu or skip the video sequence. When the DVC is not being used, the game some...

Well I bought a 22ER9956/40 DVC cartridge with an IMPEG board (removing it was quite easy). However, it turned out my 21TCDI30 did not have an IMPEG but VMPEG 5.1 board (the sticker on the back says 22ER9956/20) I replaced the board anyway and the player is fixed ! Now I feel kinda bad we damaged th...

Thanks for the info.

If I manage to get a 22ER9956/40 cartridge, is it possible to get the PCB out and back in without breaking the cartridge (so I can resell it if it doesnt fix the issue)? I'm not seeing any screws on the pictures on your website.

New pictures and added a list of the games. Also the previous pictures I posted actually contained a few PC games by Philips (Sluice & Nihilist) and I have removed them. Can't seem to find anything about Sluice on the internet though. I checked all the CDRs with ISOBuster to see if they were CDi dis...

Box with games saved from the trash at work

Hello. Today I saved box with CD-i games from the thrash at work. I don't have much knowledge about CD-i so I don't know if there is anything really interesting. The box was a mixed bag of seemingly retail, test, beta and burned CD-r discs. I don't know all the games work, especially the CD-r versio...

I can get one of these things for free although I don't know if it still works and both the TV and CDI remote seem to be missing. However, I don't think there were any other people interested so ...
