What is FMV?
I know it stands for "full motion video" but what exactly is that?

I used to think FMV had to be filmed, but recently I've seen the term FMV applied to any cut scene in a game.
So is this another case of people changing definitions to suit themselves or does the term FMV still apply only to video sequences that were originally filmed?
