The CD-I format was better known as CD Video in the 1990s. Video CD is a different format that was compatible with all DVD players and was big in China / Japan about 20 years ago. I used to author VCDs and then 1/2 DVD resolution video onto CD-R discs, in the days before I had access to a DVD burner in my PC. TMPGenc encoder was a favourite at the time to do the conversion. I actually recently authored a small VCD clip as part of a video comparing picture quality of various home video formats from VHS up to modern 4K UHD output. To be honest, it wasn't much better than VHS - slightly lower resolution, but better noise handling.
I believe cd video refers to the small 3” audio discs with 1 video track on but it’s basically a mini laserdisc and not digital video only digital audio. Stay tuned!

It's just the other way around,,
CD-i is compatible & supports VideoCD (VCD) not CD-Video...

I remember tmpenc. I used it as well.
And with todays encoders (x265) you can do a 90 min 720p RIP to 700mb. ;-)
