The Cinepak coding method is a vector quantization scheme with interframe motion compensation. It is known to operate most commonly using a modified YUV 4:2:0 colorspace but also supports 256-grayscale mode and palettized 8-bit mode. A modified variant of this format is used for full motion video on many Sega Saturn games (in [[Sega FILM]] files often bearing the .cpk extension). It is not known if this format has anything in common with the [[Cinepak For Sega]] format used in many Sega CD games.

A modified variant of this format is used for full motion video on many Sega Saturn games (in Sega FILM files often bearing the .cpk extension).
