Fremont, CA –
September 14, 2006 — InterVideo®,
Inc. (NASDAQ: IVII) an industry leader
in bringing next-generation H.264/MPEG-4
AVC technology to consumers, announced
today InterVideo iVideoToGo™ Platinum,
the easiest way to copy* personal videos
for playback on a video-enabled iPod®
and Sony® PSP™ devices. Priced at only
$29.95, the software is a 3-step
solution that lets users quickly convert
their existing DVDs and video files into
iPod- and PSP-compatible files that
provide smooth, flawless playback.
Easily one of the fastest conversion
tools on the market, iVideoToGo Platinum
is equipped with a simple, friendly
interface and it utilizes a single
window for all tasks. iVideoToGo
Platinum is able to support both iPod
and PSP formats. And with just three
steps to complete the copy process,
there's no learning curve-even a
beginner can have immediate success.
"With iVideoToGo Platinum, Sony PSP and
iPod users are no longer limited to the
pre-formatted videos that are
available," said Steve Ro, president and
CEO of InterVideo. "InterVideo has
solved the conversion problem so
consumers can now enjoy their personal
videos, music and photos wherever they
go without sacrificing quality.
iVideoToGo Platinum provides a one-stop
solution — from file conversion to file
transferring — and is easily the best
multimedia software solution for the
mobile lifestyle nowadays."
Video Library for
iPod and PSP
Featuring CopyLater™ technology,
iVideoToGo Platinum offers the
convenience of high-quality output
performed when the computer is idle,
allowing uninterrupted batch conversion
of videos while the user is somewhere
else or asleep. Copy to Go allows users
their own video library, synching videos
with iPod or PSP automatically. With
this feature, iVideoToGo Platinum can be
used as a file conversion tool as well
as a substitute for iTunes. If users
download TV programs frequently,
iVideoToGo’s Intelligent Folder
Monitoring can do file batch conversions
regularly. Users can set a regular
conversion schedule, or simply let
iVideoToGo do it automatically.
Video Trimming
iVideoToGo Platinum converts DVDs to
iPod and PSP formats and allows users to
do video trimming. Users can elect to
split a movie into several videos by DVD
chapters, or use Video Trimming to cut
the opening and ending of a TV program.
Broad Format Support
iVideoToGo Platinum includes
InterVideo's innovative H.264 codec
technology. H.264, which is also known
as the Advanced Video Codec (AVC)
specification or MPEG 4-Part 10,
provides two to three times the
compression efficiency of current
solutions such as the MPEG-2 standard,
enabling IVideoToGo Platinum users to
pack up to 85 hours of video on a 30GB
iPod and over 2.5 hours on a 1GB Memory
Stick for PSP.
In addition to supporting the iPod's
H.264/MPEG-4 formats iVideoToGo Platinum
