CDi Commercials etc.

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.

there are some preview discs, but nothing with commercials I'm aware of. What's on these discs you have? Commercials are a hot item here lately :)

First of all - almost everything on these discs is in german. they came out on a monthly basis (mostly 1995) and came in card boxes labeld "demo disc - nicht zum verkauf bestimmt" (not for retail). in its heydays (did the cdi have anything like that? ) there where several tv commercials starring a german comedian. some of these are on the disks. besides that there are a lot of trailers for games, video cds, hardware etc. (ca. 20 on each disc).

I could provide an FTP account for you to upload them to a temporary location. Might be interesting to have a look see of these videos, even if they are all in German! :D

That'd be cool, I guess it'll be okay just being commercials and all!

Some odd German guy running around the place mostly!

Nothing particularly outstanding but interesting all the same.
