Had a little play with my newly discovered S-Video cable and captured these off a Kyocera CD-i player.

Impressed by the image quality through S-Video, this motivated me to find my SCART to composite cable because most normal CD-i Players lack an S-Video port! Just tried a 220 and the image is really great compared to the standard composite to composite I typically use for my video/screen capture. I'm now an official convert to SCART and S-Video only, also it should look prettier when taking screen shots!

Interesting that it shows the name of the CD-i (last screen); no other player I've come accross does that!

Can't get at the BIOS at the moment, it has an I/O port (very tight fit) but doesn't respond to CD-i Link. Anyway to test the connection is good?

I think the SONY also does this.

You can fire up Hyperterminal and see if any boot messages come out.

This seems a very different player, I'd bet it doesn't support the download protocol just like the Sony. Any luck with the CD-i stub disc, perhaps?

What program do you use do burn it with? Everything seems to spit it out when I don't remember having problems before!

I have some discs anyway just can't remember if it is the stub! These discs become unreadable once burnt?

from whar i know, the 450 also says "play cd-i"
if anyone is intrested in 450 screenshots, or gameplay video/screenshot from games, ask me. i also own a cdi and capture card (AV capture)

I believe cdi_stub is in standar bin/cue format?
