Yes, I'll second that leirbag28!

:-D

It's so nice to do as much on Amiga as possible, but I don't have a PC
so it's doubly nice to be able to squeaze as much use out of the
old A1200 as possible.

Fortunately over the years I managed to view the Phantom Menace
trailer on MooVid, then Attack of the Clones trailer on RiVA-GUI.

It would be nice for some sort of movie converter, wonder if Hollywood
can do things like this.

I think MooVID PPC has a DiVX or 3iVX codec but that's all I'm aware
of. Apple have gone haywire with their Quicktime releases and since
then there's WMV etc. to contend with.

There's a basic animation converter on Aminet, AnimConvert I think
it's called but it doesn't support CDXL.

I thought CDXL was a Commodore datatype for use with
Utilities/Multiview anyway!? There was a fantastic CDXL on the Genetic
Species game disc.

But as has been said, a 10mb MPG would probably be a 100mb CDXL.

The urge to expand the CD32 is totally understandable, it's such a
diddy little machine, particularly with the SX-1/SX32 expansions.

Don't see why an FMV can't fit in the hard disk space with a suitably
thin hard disk and some sort of switcher.

:-)

Just for the hell of it, and "Because We Can"...  try loading the CD32
with Fusion/Shapeshifter (with the special Akiko enhanced video
driver) and see how well it plays Quicktimes etc. on MacOS 7.5.5!
