10-Q: DIVX INC
MarketWatch (press release)
ur actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors including those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. verviewWe create products and services designed to improve the experience of media. ur long-term goal is to allow creators to have the ability to capture their content in the DivX format using any device or software of their choosing and to allow consumers of such content to playback and interact with it on any device or platform. The first step towards our goal was to build and release a high-quality video compression-decompression software library or codec to enable distribution of media across the Internet and through recordable media. As a result we created the DivX codec which has been actively sought out and downloaded by consumers hundreds of millions of times. These downloads include those for which we receive revenue as well as free downloads such as limited-time trial versions and downloads provided as upgrades to existing end users of our products. After the significant grass-roots adoption of our codec the next step towards our goal was to license similar technology to consumer hardware device manufacturers and certify their products to ensure the interoperable support of DivX-encoded content.

DivX Bringing Social Bookmarking to the TV?
Zatz Not Funny
Most questions covered how and where I watch online video but after answering a dozen or so one caught my eye:5. Would you be interested in a free service that lets you bookmark online videos to queue and play back in media center software or on a device?I?ve never really been a heavy user of bookmarking services but being able to bookmark television content would be much more appealing. ne of the biggest problems in bridging the computer to TV gap is the process of finding the content that you want to watch and then getting it to the television set. For downloadable media this is easier to accomplish but for streaming media you?ll need some kind of a PC or internet connected gadgetry.
