A combination hardware and software solution, Presto! Wireless Video Recorder allows partners to select a digital video sender and pair it with either the Presto!

PVR gives partners the opportunity to customize the solution according to the options they choose to ensure the maximum satisfaction of their customers.

"With the digital home coming of age, users will want to receive their favorite video content from a variety of sources, and they will want to be able to view that content from a variety of locations," said James Li, President of NewSoft. "To achieve this, content will need to be recorded, delivered and viewed wirelessly. The Presto! Wireless Video Recorder is an ideal solution, giving our partners the flexibility to deliver a range of capabilities to home entertainment users."

Some of the powerful technologies in the WVR include AV broadcasting capability, seamless viewing capability, a high-performance DVD burning kernel, an enhanced MPEG trans-coding process, and DTCM - our Dynamic Transport Stream Control Mechanism.

"Partners can decide how many options they want to offer users by choosing to add an additional hardware receiver for LCD viewing to go along with the Digital Video Sender and the Presto! PVR and DVD Creation Pack," continued Li.

NewSoft's standard package will offer a digital video sender and a Wireless PVR with DVD Creation Pack, with a second optional receiver for LCD viewing, so that home users can watch their video programs from multiple places throughout the home.
