Disc player capable of playing back 1080p high-definition (HD) DivX(R) video

Consumers are using HD video across multiple platforms and devices, and there
is a strong demand for playback of DivX HD files. By adding DivX support to
the BD390, now consumers can play DivX video up to HD 1080p burned to DVDs or
stored on USB flash drives. DivX HD 1080p content can also be streamed
directly from a network with a DLNA server making it simple for consumers to
playback their library of favorite HD videos.

Typical HD video requires a considerable amount of digital storage space, but
DivX HD video provides a superior media experience by maintaining the highest
visual quality while significantly reducing the digital file size of the
video. Using DivX technology, users can fit approximately two hours of
high-quality DivX HD video on an 8GB media card.

"LG is heralding a new direction for the Blu-ray industry with the
full-feature high-end BD390 and incorporating support for DivX HD 1080p video
is a key product differentiator," said Simon Kang, CEO and President of LG
Home Entertainment Company. "With playback for DivX HD, the LG BD390 provides
an expanded full HD viewing experience."

"LG is a market leader and an award-winning innovator in consumer electronics,
and we are thrilled to work with them to provide the first LG BD player that
is DivX Certified(R) for 1080p HD playback," said Kevin Hell, Chief Executive
Officer, DivX, Inc. "The LG BD30 makes it easier than ever for consumers to
playback their library of DivX HD content burned to DVD, stored on USB flash
drives or streamed directly into the living room."

Products that bear the DivX Certified(R) logo have undergone a rigorous
testing program to ensure a high-quality DivX media experience, including
reliable video creation and playback, interoperability with other DivX
Certified devices and the visual high quality users expect from DivX.
