  Palo Alto, CA., June 3, 2004

Digital Video Systems (DVS/Nasdaq: DVID) today stated that its Korean subsidiary DVSK (Kosdaq: DVS) has announced that it is now shipping the DVD-Portable Player Model VXM-2200 to customers in the automotive aftermarket.  

DVS Chairman and CEO Thomas A. Spanier commented, “The DVD model VXM-2200 is mounted either vertically or horizontally in car interiors and can be easily removed by the consumer for use at home as a portable DVD player. It can withstand the intense vibration and temperature extremes associated with vehicle use.”

Production of the VXM-2000 series of portable players was initiated in 2003 by DVSK and the VXM-2200 is the latest model in that series to be launched. “DVSK has advised us that they are also in production on the new VXM-3000 series of portable players,” said Spanier, “which includes a built-in LCD display. As 2004 progresses, we hope to be able to announce further new DVSK products based on proprietary technology built around DVSK’s rugged automotive loader.

"We believe that DVSK’s patented error-correction technology and vibration resistance designs enable DVSK to develop superior products for the automotive market, and we are optimistic that they will be well received by the automotive industry worldwide."

The DVS line of automotive DVD units, depending on the model, features flexible mounting at any angle, superior shock resistance and patented error correction, multiple media capability (8 cm as well as the standard 12 cm discs), the ability to read the full range of DVD, CD, and MP3 formats, slot-in loading, and support for several types of input/output connections.
