There was beta support

Proof-of-concept support for MPEG playing on Gate Array MPEG cartridges

 

There is currently no working beta version of CD-i Emulator (public or otherwise).

CD-i Emulator, version 0.5.3-beta2 for Windows

This version is no longer functional because of a built-in 2012/01/01 date limit and will immediately display a "You have exceeded the evaluation time limit" message after starting emulation.

Cdi-emulator is realy better than mess.

I m using the beta 4 ATM http://www.cdiemu.org/site/download.htm

You can find a patch to remove the limitation. It works but on some situation you can have speed problem, and I can't explain what cause that and how to solve it, make a try to see how your system react.
