CD-i Emulator also known as cdiemu is a commercial Windows-only closed-source Philips CD-i emulator under active development. It has proof-of-concept DVC support and capable of playing MPEG for Gate Array MPEG cartridges but not for IMPEG and VMPEG cartridges[1], uses some MAME/MESS source code to support the CHD file format and the writing of AVI and PNG files in accordance with licensing, and has vague plans to eventually go open-core. The emulator is released in time-limited betas unusable after time expiration (upon which a new beta is released) whereas the author provides the buyer with an unlimited .exe file for €25[2] via PayPal.
