I don't have a definitive answer, but could you perhaps be thinking of the Kodachrome 25 daylight, with super-8 perforations which was supplied on longer camera spools, rather then in cartridges?
My late Father was a cine user, and, looking at his old camera brochures and notes, I believe that the basic idea of the super-8 cartridge was to use one type of film (tungsten balanced), while the cameras had an internal daylight-to-tungsten filter, which was automatically removed when a movie-light was clipped on.
Fuji single-8 was different as, while the film size and perforations were the same, their film was supplied in separate daylight and tungsten versions.
