The CD-i emulator program (cdiemu) provides a fairly complete emulation
of the hardware of an actual physical CD-i player.
You can download a time-limited edition from the
Downloads section (Windows only for now).
I ask a modest payment for the unlimited edition; see the Payments section for more information.
The time-limited edition emulates for at most three minutes between
CD-i player resets and does not support permanent saving of NVRAM data such as
game highscores and other CD-i title settings.
The unlimited edition does not have these restrictions.
In order to actually run CD-i software,
the emulator needs copies of the CD-i system ROMs.
These ROMs are copyrighted and cannot be freely redistributed,
but you can easily obtain them via the serial port of a physical CD-i player
using the provided CD-i Link program.
Here are some screen shots of the emulator in action.
