In the 1980s there was a video player that played movies that looked like record albums. What was it called?

There were vhs tapes and tapes called beta but I can’t remember what the disc player was called. The disks were big like a record album and they didn’t catch on for long because they would skip easily.

Laser discs. You can still find those old players around on ebay and stuff.
A rental place just down the street from me still rents those bad boys.
