For Immediate Release
Norcent to Feature DP-220 DVD Player
with DivX Technology at CES
The
latest addition to Norcent’s family of DVD players
makes it easy to watch high-quality DivX movies on TV
Booth LVCC SO 3/31419 January 3, 2005
Norcent, a leading supplier of consumer electronics, will display
the DP-220 DVD player, a full-featured DVD player with built-in
DivX playback technology, at the 2005 International CES in Las Vegas.
The DP-220 plays near-DVD quality DivX content downloaded from the
Internet, and features high-quality viewing with progressive scan
and horizontal resolution of more than 500 lines. With support for
multiple CD formats and output options, the DP-220 is the perfect
DivX solution for movie buffs.
"According
to DivX.com, more than 120 million people worldwide have downloaded
the DivX codec to create or watch high-quality DivX movies," said
Jennifer Long, CEO at Norcent. "Norcent's DP-220 DVD player gives
consumers an affordable, flexible option for taking content normally
confined to the PC, and moving it to the comfort of the living room
with the full home theater experience. The DP-220 is one of the
most feature rich players available, and offers exceptional value."
With
DivX® video technology, you can compress a VHS tape down to one-hundredth
of its original size, or a DVD to one-tenth of its size and fit
the entire contents on a regular data CD. Users can save any video
content - like home movies or a personal DVD collection - on CDs for
easy storage. To date, hundreds of thousands of DivX movies
are now available for downloading on the Internet, giving DP-220
users a wide selection of titles to choose from.
Full-featured
player delivers quality and flexibility
The single-disk Progressive
Scan DP-220 DVD player sports a slim, attractive design and comes
with a full-function remote control and an on-screen menu display
for easy viewing. Built-in Dolby Digital Surround sound creates
a theater-like experience. Users have access to eight-step fast
or slow motion with nine picture viewing functions, as well as eight
different language soundtracks and captions in 32 languages. With
support for all types of media - DVD, DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW, CD, CD-R/-RW,
MP3-CD, MPEG-4, and Picture-CD - the DP-220 provides maximum flexibility
for high-quality DivX movie playback.
