high-growth DVD recorder market. Announced today, the DMN-8603 is part of the
new DiMeNsion(TM)-3 solution that will be demonstrated this week in the
Central Hall, booth #14938 at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

and their early adoption of DivX encoding technology will provide significant
value to OEMs looking to implement a full-featured, high-performance DVD
recorder solution that enables consumers to create and playback DivX video,"
said Bill Holmes, director of product management, Consumer Electronics at
DivXNetworks, Inc. "Additionally, consumers will benefit from the increased
recording capacity enabled by DivX Certified encoding solutions."

integrates a wide variety of technologies and features, including DivX
encoding and playback, SACD and DVD-Audio, SD-to-HD upconversion, HD-JPEG,
