27.10.2022 - Commodore CDTV in a 1990s Hi-Fi Stack - new Video from '8-Bit Show And Tell'
Even though it was essentially an Amiga 500 with a CD-ROM drive hiding inside a hi-fi stereo component case, Commodore left the Amiga name off the CDTV because they didn't want it to be considered a computer; instead they wanted it in your living room, hooked up to your high-end entertainment system's television and speakers. In many ways, the CDTV was forward-thinking, but it did not sell well and in the end most surplus units were sold bundled with a keyboard, mouse, and floppy drive, ironically, as Amiga computers. We take a look at the CDTV in its originally intended context as part of a 1990s home theatre, and try some of the many abilities of this device, including playing CDXL digital movies, CD+G CDs, early interactive multimedia encyclopedias, games, the wireless controller, and of course hunt for the Easter Egg hiding in the preferences screen.
