CD-i (Compact-Disc Interactive) is the term used by Redump.info to refer to any compact disc mastered using the CD-i specification (Green Book). The most known CD-i player was the Philips CDI 550 which featured the "paddle" controller.
General Notes
- Follow IBM PC Guide for dumping. Note that the CD-I file system is not readable on Windows. So all discs will appear empty.
- Green book as a whole is considered a "dead" system for Redump purposes, so all discs are allowed including CD-i Digital Video discs with movies.
- CD-I ready discs go under this DAT rather than Audio CD. Despite appearing as audio CDs to most players and systems.
- Hybrid discs (CD-I bridge) follow the primary content rule in terms of what DAT they go under.
- Many Video CDs have CD-I branding on the case. This does not automatically make them eligible though, so check the Video CD guide if that might be the case.
