The Philips CD-I players currently on the market do not have any FS/FM video
capabilities.  They do, however, have a cartridge slot on the back which is
intended for an MPEG-I video extension sometime during 1993.  As always, the
modules will probably be available to developers at a premium price before
a general consumer launch.

For more general information on CD-I or on authoring systems for CD-I you
can contact OptImage at 1-800-CDI-5484 or your local Philips rep.
