LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 9, 2004

(Winter CES, Hilton Center Booth #54095) -- Pixa, Inc., is freeing fans of downloaded movies from the tyranny of their computer monitors with the new DVOne DivX DVD Player DX-8020, one of the first standalone DVD players capable of playing video files that have been burned onto CD or DVD with space-saving DivX/MPEG-4 technology. This allows consumers to play back their downloaded entertainment du jour with near-DVD quality on a TV or a home theater system instead of being trapped in front of their PCs.

At $79.99 (MSRP), the new player also plays all standard DVD and CD media, including store-bought audio CDs, home-burned CD-R/RWs and MP3 audio files as well as DVD video, JPEG-based picture CDs, and TV shows or digital camcorder images stored on DVD+R/+RW or -R/-RW disc. DivX support extends to files encoded in DivX versions 3.11, 4.x and 5.x.

The product incorporates progressive scan DVD playback for extra-sharp resolution and picture quality, DVD-Audio to ensure accurate reproduction of sound effects with a full-range multi-channel sound field, and a built-in Dolby/DTS 5.1-channel system. It is compatible with NTSC, PAL and SECAM television standards.

The DVOne DivX DVD Player DX-8020 is available direct from Pixa at www.pixainc.com or www.dvoneonline.com. All necessary cables and a remote control are included.
