ViXS(R) Shipping the World's most Advanced Multi-Stream High Definition (HD) Network Transcoding Media Processing Solution on the Market Today

ViXS XCode((R)) 5100 family, the first commercially deployed, quad stream HD
transcoder, sets a new milestone as ViXS delivers over 30 Million XCode
Multimedia Processors

TORONTO, Jan. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - With unsurpassed performance, ultra low
latency and a suite of application software, the XCode((R)) 5100 family is the smart network multimedia processor of choice for
delivering the Connected Digital Home experience today. The XCode( )5100 family's unique features and performance, including: quad stream HD
transcoding, octal stream mirror transcoding, multiple simultaneously
media processing, Multimedia over Coax Alliance (MoCA((R))) networking, low power, extremely high video quality, has resulted in
very strong customer and market acceptance.

"With the support of manufacturers seeking to address the
ever-increasing demand for multiple streams of video within the home,
the XCode 5100 family has gained significant traction globally since
its launch", said Sally Daub, President & CEO of ViXS.   "The XCode 5100
family, deployed with pioneering patented and proprietary technology,

XCode network media processors, now extending to( )the new XCode 5100 family which includes the 5106, 5115, 5190, 5191
5195, and 5196, have been designed into headed gateways, advanced
Set-top boxes, headless gateways, residential gateways, and standalone
media gateways. Bolstered by the deployed and robust Xtensiv(TM) software,
and the XCode family's unique applications hosting capabilities, this
family is highly adaptable and suited to the functional requirements of
its challenging target markets.   Supported by comprehensive advanced
security architecture, the XCode 5100 family is proving to be the
logical media processor choice for today's demanding customer
applications.

            other smart phone tablet devices.
        --  Multi stream Real-time HD to HD transcoding and mirror
            transcoding, trans-wrapping, and transcryption to serve
            multiple Internet Protocol (IP) based devices within the home.
        --  Faster than real-time transcode on stored content which allows
            the user to stream content from one source to another in a
            fraction of the time it takes to play this back real time from
            the stored media.
        --  Ultra low latency for wireless and streaming applications
            within the home.
        --  Advanced security processor architecture to enable security for
            leading digital rights management providers (DRM), Conditional
