From Redump Wiki

Revision as of 18:20, 8 December 2022

Undumped Video-CD (VCD) discs.

Qualified for Redump inclusion:

• Disc includes game-related content: such as games (example: Super Game 300), bonus mini-games (movie extras), game trailers.
• Disc includes console-specific content: such as "Music Video Sampler" VCD that includes videos for Philips CD-i-exclusive branded Music titles.
• Official video game console branding or content. This does not include VCDs which use console names in an unlicensed manner[1].
• All Philips branded VCDs (which commonly, but not always have serial numbers formatted as such: 8## ####, 310######-2).
• Contains Philips CD-i format (root "CDI" folder) exclusive content beyond a standard menu: bonus features (example ZYX Dance Hits, Historia Interactiva de la Humanidad series). All VCDs contain a "CDI" root folder with menus as a required part of the VCD specification, merely having a CDI format menu does not qualify a disc for Redump inclusion.
• Is a hybrid format disc another system automatically qualified for Redump is present: The Cranberries: Doors and Windows[2] is qualified because ALL Philips CD-i formatted discs are qualified for Redump entry (even non-game related multi-media).
• Bonus or bundled discs which are not game related, but another disc in the set is qualified for Redump entry.

While standard Video CD specification Tao iKTV and Tomy Kiss-Site branded Karaoke discs are included in Redump. More broadly Redump moderators have not made a decision as to whether or not Karaoke VCDs / CD+Gs / DVD-Videos are qualified to be added to Redump. Further discussion here.

Philips CD-i Related

Videos / Movies / Concerts were sometimes released in Philips CD-i branded packaging. Sometimes these were labeled "CD-i Digital Video" format only playable on a CD-i console, but often they were labeled "Video CD" making them a generic VCD format - with a caveat of sometimes including CD-i specific extras.
