From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Former RCA video brand

SelectaVision was a trademark name used on four classes of device by the Radio Corporation of America:

• The Holotape, a prototype video medium^[1]
• Magnetic tape
• VHS videocassette recorders, and
• Capacitance Electronic Disc videodisc players and the discs themselves, introduced in 1981. ^[2]

Capacitance Electronic Disc's competitors, Philips/Magnavox and Pioneer, instead manufactured optical discs, read with lasers.On April 4, 1984, RCA, having sold only 550,000 players, ended sales, losing $580 million.^[2] The losses resulted in General Electric's acquisition of RCA in 1986, and the "SelectaVision" brand was abandoned.^[2]
