Could it be Crime Wave on the PC (and I believe on the Amiga too)? It didn't feature FMV, but had digitized graphics featuring real actors. Made in 1990.

LMK.  I love dorking around with digital video

Just pirate it.  All copies, even craptastic Slash releases, go for
more than they're worth IMO.  Slash, don't pay more than $20;
non-Slash, pay up to $55 if it's complete.  But personally I don't
think they're worth more than that (even though the fans disagree
with me).

Sherlock Holmes was entered by me and I confirmed the date.  I
bought my SBPro kit in 1992, but the game was available as early as
1991 (check the file dates if you don't believe me -- it was
availble for the 1991 xmas season.  I also worked a couple of blocks
from ICOM's offices at the time :).

So, a recap:  The first example of DECENT full-motion video was
indeed Sherlock Holmes.  Earlier than that was Martian Memorandum,
by a few months, and a passable attempt at digitized facial
animation + digitized sound was Mean Streets in 1989.

Again, there is the nagging feeling that there is some Amiga
title that could qualify...
