One of the three competing video formats in early 1980's, developed by Philips in order to beat the crap out of Sony's BetaMax and VHS.
It has some unique features that other VCR formats didn't have -- the cassette can be flipped over, just like a regular C-cassette and it also had linear stereo already in early '80s. It was also the first VCR format to achieve noise-free still picture and many other achievements. Unfortunately Philips ceased the development of this format in late '80s.
