MainConcept Adds DivX Support to Leading Video Reference Application

With standard presets ranging from video for mobile devices up to high-definition video, the DivX plug-in for MainConcept Reference makes it easy to encode video footage into DivX compliant streams. There are five presets available for the DivX profiles Home Theatre, 720p, 1080p, Mobile and qMobile that offer a simple selection for the user to match to a DivX Certified(R) device. Over 100 million DivX Certified devices have shipped into the global market from major manufacturers, including DVD players, gaming consoles, digital televisions, Blu-ray devices and more.

"There are a huge number of different DivX Certified devices such as DVD players and mobile phones out in the market which support this exciting format and the DivX ecosystem continues to expand into new product categories," says Muzaffer Beygirci, Managing Director and VP Worldwide Sales at MainConcept. "With help of MainConcept Reference and its new DivX support, we will enable broadcasters and professionals to support one of the world's leading video formats and provide compliance with numerous DivX Certified devices."

MainConcept Reference 1.6 and the DivX plug-in will be available for online purchase and download at the MainConcept website beginning September 1, 2008. The SDK with DivX support will be available shortly.

To test the power of the codecs and the Reference workflow, a free evaluation version with all important MainConcept codecs in demo mode is available for pre-purchase testing at www.mainconcept.com.
