I believe this is a Laserdisc, not a CDV. I read the preceding comments, but this bit of history from the Laserdisc branding area on Wikipedia is relevant here."After its introduction in Japan in 1981, the format was introduced in Europe in 1983 with the LaserVision name although Philips used "VLP" in model designations, such as VLP-600. Philips tried renaming the entire format in 1987 to "CD-Video", and while the name and logo appeared on players and labels for years, the 'official' name of the format remained LaserVision. In the early 1990s, the format's name was finally changed to LaserDisc."The disc carrys the "L" Logo with "Laservision" written underneath it on the disc. In addition, the disc contains both analog and digital audio, which is unique to the laserdisc format.CD-Video is simply a different branding of what we now call the laserdisc and should not be confused with Video CD or VCD.
