Los Altos, CA - April 15, 2004
     Sanview Technology Inc and Videosoft announced today an agreement for Sanview to incorporate Videosoft's H.264 Codecs into their Video on Demand and Streaming solutions. "H.264 will help us cut our customers' video transmission costs and enable them to expand their content reach to lower-bit-rate markets," explained Kuk Chung, Chairman and Founder of Sanview Technology, adding that "Videosoft's codec technology will help us maximize video picture quality dramatically."

Amsterdam, Netherlands, September 15, 2003.
     Also at IBC was Vanguard Software Solutions Inc., a little-known Los Altos, Calif., startup with a majority of its R&D engineering team based in St. Petersburg, Russia. VideoSofts, as the company is known, made waves here with its H.264 Baseline Profile codec algorithm, capable of encoding standard-definition content in software on a PC with a 3-GHz Pentium 4 processor. In a demo that mixed H.264 with MPEG-4 AAC-plus-SBR audio coding, VideoSoft allowed visitors to pick a video file, pair it with audio and encode it in real-time. No company had previously demonstrated a software-only real-time encoding capability that allowed standard-definition pictures to be shown on a PC platform without an acceleration board.

Los Altos, CA, and Nuremberg, Germany, September 08, 2003.
     VideoSoft, the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 performance leader, and Coding Technologies, the leading provider of audio compression for digital broadcasting, mobile, and the Internet, are jointly demonstrating the first integrated SDKs of MPEG-4 AVC and MPEG-4 aacPlus, the two most advanced standard compression schemes available today. The demonstration for IBC 2003 (September 12- 16, 2003) will be held in MPEG Industry Forum Village (booth 7.820) and features real-time encoding of Standard Definition video resolution seamlessly integrated with 5.1 multichannel surround sound. This solution offers to application and product developers the first industry standard solution worldwide to exploit the full benefits of MPEG-4/AVC and aacPlus on Windows and Linux PCs. SDKs for integrating these codecs into encoder and player applications are available now.

Paris, September 08, 2003.
    As the International Broadcasting Convention opens in Amsterdam this week (Sept. 11-15), the most doggedly pursued technology by many of the companies in attendance will be software- or hardware-based solutions for real-time H.264 encoding and decoding in high-resolution applications.
A year ago at IBC, H.264 was still a curiosity that hinted at the industry's future, and inspired comparisons to MPEG-4 a standard that has played only a supporting role in broadcasting.
New on the H.264 roster at this year's IBC is little known startup called VideoSoft (Los Altos, Calif.). Most of VideoSoft' R&D engineering team is based in St. Petersburg, Russia. VideoSoft hopes to make a splash at IBC with its code-efficient, real-time H.264 Baseline Profile codec algorithm. It is capable of encoding standard-definition content in software without degrading picture quality. It runs on a PC using a single Pentium 4 processor running at 3 GHz.

Los Altos, CA, September 08, 2003.
    VideoSoft joins MPEG Industry Forum and will demonstrate real time H.264 encoding performance. MPEG4-AVC/H.264 has gained significant momentum since it was recently finalized as identical standards in ITU (as H.264) and ISO (as MPEG-4 part 10). MPEG4- AVC/H.264 is being widely recognized as the future platform of video compression for applications such as new HDTV services, portable game console, mobile broadcast video services, video on solid-state camcorders, instant video messaging on cell phone.
