Press Release Body = August XX, 2006-MOUNTAIN VIEW and SAN DIEGO, CA -OPPO Digital,
Inc., (www.oppodigital.com), an innovative consumer electronics manufacturer, and
DivX, Inc., the digital entertainment company that created the DivX media format,
today announced the official DivX Certification of the OPPO Digital DV-970HD
Universal DVD Player with HDMI.

The DV-970HD has received an abundance of positive reviews and enthusiastic support
from the home theater community for its outstanding visual excellence and ability to
playback various media and video file types, including the popular DivX media
format. Additionally, the DV-970HD utilizes revolutionary technology to up-convert
videos to high definition resolutions from standard definition for HD compatibility.

With over 180 million software products downloaded worldwide, DivX is one of the
most desirable compression formats available today for digital media. DivX requires
only a fraction of the data required by a standard-length DVD while retaining
extremely high quality and the ability to playback Dolby encoded audio. DivX is
ideal for secure playback on PCs, as well as major consumer electronics such as the
OPPO DV-970HD.

"This innovative OPPO Digital DVD player combined with DivX technology enables
millions of HDTV owners to watch content from a wide variety of sources at a high
level of visual quality," said Kevin Hell, CXO, Partners and Licensing at DivX, Inc.
"We are excited to partner with OPPO Digital as one of the manufacturers to bring
this solution to home theaters around the world."

revolutionary technological transformation of the video market," said Nathaniel
Plain, Manager of Technical Services at OPPO Digital, Inc. "OPPO and DivX, Inc. are
uniting to set a new level of visual quality, ease of use, and diversity of content
never seen before."

devices and platforms. More than 46 million DivX Certified devices have been shipped
