Hm, I recall watching four windowed Eric Schwartz animations on my stock A500 (512/512) back in the day - all Turbo Silver created and animated ones...his F117 flyby was one of them, IIRC.

Of course, in a 320x256 screen or whatever resolution it was, you figure a quarter of that size...not too demanding even for a 7mhz machine! :D

CDXL was 1/4 screen due to the fact the CD drive could only stream data that fast.  CDXL format was not limited to 1/4 screen.  Remember CDTV was 1x CD-Rom.

On CD32 you could a lot better CDXL animation.  

I think the CDTV had the best video play back from 1x CD on the market without MPEG.


This was 1989, well prior to the CDTV, well prior to CDXL.  These were bog standard IFF anims.  They're probably up on aminet if you go looking for them.
