Newest Version of DVD-Playing Software Sports Over 30 New Features Including Remote Control, Video Desktop and Improved Time-Stretching

"With over 150 customers, including Dell, HP and Sony, InterVideo has been successful selling its software through the OEM channel," said Steve Ro, CEO and co-founder of InterVideo. "Our new functionality and greater availability through retail outlets make WinDVD 4 and WinDVD 4 Plus InterVideo's most robust and accessible DVD-playing products yet."

WinDVD 4's and WinDVD 4 Plus's proprietary Time-Stretching feature allows a user to play a movie faster or slower without distorting the audio -- and with full multi-channel audio support. With its updated time-stretching capabilities a user can utilize new "Finish by ... " and "View in ... " commands to control the time the movie will end. For example, a user might choose "Finish by 10:00 pm" or "View in 1 hour" and the playback speed of the movie is automatically adjusted by WinDVD 4 and WinDVD 4 Plus -- ideal for business travelers who want to get the most out of short flights and battery life. Time-Stretching is not available on any other DVD player.

WinDVD 4 and WinDVD 4 plus also feature new enhancements like:

    -- Video Desktop which enables users to play movies as desktop wallpaper,
       behind the desktop's icons and windows

    -- TV Out Support which makes it easier to use your computer as a living
       room DVD player

    -- The ability to play DVD content from a hard drive directory, a vital
       feature for playing content from DVD authoring software or downloaded
       MPEG-2 files

    -- Unique Screen Capture Utility is an integrated browser to easily
       capture, save and sort images from DVDs.

    In addition to all the functionality of WinDVD 4, WinDVD 4 Plus also adds:

    -- Full TV Color Adjustments to adjust brightness, contrast and color just
       like on a TV

    -- Gamma Correction to adjust the overall brightness and color saturation
       of the movies on your screen or monitor for perfect viewing every time,
       even outdoors

    -- High End Audio like DTS Digital Sound, Dolby EX and Dolby Pro Logic II
