I read the definition, but I really can’t wrap my head around what it actually means.

Back in the day we used to have this as a new thing. It contained not only great graphics, but full motion video sequences! It was considered (arguably) another layer of immersion with limitied tech at the time. Eventually this went out of date and are now considered cinematics, or cut scenes in games. FMV was also in tons of CD Dictionaries (among other things) in the early 90’s, and this was insane, like a moving picture in a book at the time.
