InterVideo Launches DVD Copy 4

Comprehensive three-Step DVD Software with Advanced DVD Copying Capabilities and Enhanced Customization Features

FREMONT, Calif. - InterVideo, Inc. (NASDAQ: IVII) announced InterVideo DVD Copy 4, the latest release of its award-winning, three-step software for making high-quality copies of unencrypted* CDs, DVDs, video, music, photo and data files.
* InterVideo DVD Copy does not bypass copy protection. DVDs containing CSS-encryption cannot be copied.

Consistently rated as one of the easiest and most comprehensive copy and DVD burning applications, DVD Copy enables consumers to meet all of their video duplication, conversion and reproduction needs with a single solution. With the new version, InterVideo adds “most-wanted” features such as automated Internet file copy support, support for handheld and gaming devices and support for the new DivX Media Format features introduced with DivX 6.

DVD Copy 4 - compatible with Windows 2000 and XP systems - combines these and a host of other new features with the ability to achieve superior-quality copies up to 25 per cent faster.

For the three-step process, users simply select the source, drive destination and the video output format. The software’s powerful Autofit feature automatically determines how much compression is needed to produce the best-looking results for the output selected.

More experienced users will enjoy DVD Copy 4’s advanced customization capabilities that enable them to personalize their DVD/VCD content to suit their individual viewing habits and available space. With these capabilities, they can remove unwanted subtitles, languages, titles and chapters, or even merge titles from several different DVDs/VCDs onto a single disc. In addition, DVD Copy 4 supports copying and transcoding a DVD +VR or a DVD- VR format video from DVD recorders to the DVD Video format for broader playback capabilities. Emerging formats such as downloaded “VodCasts” will also be easy to customize with DVD Copy and convert from MPEG4 to DVD Video discs.
