A viewer has shared this link to a video promo for CDV – I’ve cueued it up to the section that explains how CDV (but also LaserDiscs) work. It’s surprisingly detailed – you might find it of interest. You’ll need to pan your balance to your right speaker for English. If you’re viewing it via an IOS device, this is possible using the accessibility controls in settings.

The BBC Domesday Project Laserdisc Players were connected to BBC Masters not Model B’s as erroneously stated (as well as IBM compatible PCs)

Potential Yes. See the FAQs in the video description text box for more.
Q) Can you play the video on a 12cm CD Video in a DVD or VCD machine or in a PC?
A) No, it’s composite analog video whereas those play digital formats.
(There are some later Laserdisc machines that can play DVDs because they added in the MPEG2 decoders.).
