Palo Alto, CA., October 14, 2003

Digital Video Systems, Inc. (DVS/NASDAQ: DVID) announced today that DVS Korea (DVSK) is in commercial production of two new DVD products geared to the automotive aftermarket with a third slated for full production at the end of November. 

Production on the DSV-800 series of car DVD loaders and the VXM-2000 series of portable car DVD players began in late July, with shipments to Asian and US OEM customers expected to exceed 50,000 units by the end of December. Following the loaders and players, the exciting new VXD-2000 series of car AM/FM/RDS/DVD Receivers, combining the features of a car DVD player and a full-function AM/FM radio, is now in test production with commercial quantities planned for late November.  

Making DVD players and receivers for cars has special challenges, commented DVS CEO Douglas T. Watson. ìDVS technology has unique features that make us very competitive in the automotive market. These feature-rich DVD units utilize our patented error correction technology and superior vibration resistance. We are targeting the automotive aftermarket for near-term sales for both loaders and players, mostly because of the long lead times for OEM procurements. However, we do have an active campaign to ultimately grab the brass ring by winning OEM positions for our car DVD products with the automotive manufacturers.

Used in the Company's new DVD players and receivers, the new DSV-800 series car DVD loaders use proprietary DVS technology and sport a new slim design. With its full feature set and exclusive technology, the Company believes that its DSV-800 loader series will become very attractive to OEM suppliers of car DVD players. 
 
Features of the upcoming VXD-2000 Receiver include: 

* DVD Video (Double Layer Ready)
* MultiRead: DVD,DVD+-R/RW,VCD,SVCD,CD,CD-R/-RW,CD-Text,MP3

New DVS Car DVD Products

DVS Korea is on the fast track toward higher margin DVD products, Watson concluded. These new car DVD products are geared to the mobile entertainment market and, when added to our just-announced DVD+RW (rewritable) loader for home use, significantly broadens our reach into high-growth areas.
