An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

MovieCD is a format for digital video storage and consumer home video playback released in 1996 by Sirius Publishing, and was rendered obsolete by the wider distribution of DVD. It used a video codec called MotionPixels, marketed by MotionPixels, Inc., a subsidiary of Sirius Publishing (founded by Darrel Smith and Richard Gnant). It was used in many third-party video games from the mid to late-1990s, and during the same time on Sirius's MovieCDs that it had been originally developed for, enjoying an international distribution in both forms.

  • MovieCD is a format for digital video storage and consumer home video playback released in 1996 by Sirius Publishing, and was rendered obsolete by the wider distribution of DVD. It used a video codec called MotionPixels, marketed by MotionPixels, Inc., a subsidiary of Sirius Publishing (founded by Darrel Smith and Richard Gnant). It was used in many third-party video games from the mid to late-1990s, and during the same time on Sirius's MovieCDs that it had been originally developed for, enjoying an international distribution in both forms. Both MovieCDs and the MotionPixels codec remain an issue today in that medium market availability of MovieCDs remained until around the year 2000 and some of the above-mentioned video games still have a cult following, both producing malfunctions in modern PCs due to the outdated MotionPixels codec.

  • MovieCD foi um formato de reprodução de vídeo digital e playback durante a década de 1990 produzida pela SIRIUS Publishing, Inc. Foi um fracasso popular por não ter qualidade frente ao VCD, e se tornou completamente obsoleto com a criação do DVD. Para rodar em computadores era usado um codec de vídeo chamado MotionPixels, numa tentativa de fugir do monopólio estabelecido pelo MPEG. Funcionando relativamente bem em sistemas operacionais como o , teve sua sobrevivência encurtada pela dificuldade de reprodução nos sistemas posteriores. Hoje, ele pode ser considerado o primeiro formato de vídeo para computadores oficialmente desaparecido, já que seu codec MotionPixels não foi comprado por nenhuma empresa ou teve seu código fonte disponibilizado.
