DVD Movie Clip Extractor Cinematize 2
Now Offers Direct Output for iPod, Playstation Portable, and the Web
San Jose, California - December 22, 2005 - Miraizon®, a San Jose- based digital media software company, announced today that it has
added new functionality to its award-winning DVD movie clip
extractor, Cinematize 2, to directly generate movie files for iPod
video and Playstation Portable (PSP) units, as well as for sharing on
the web. These new features change what used to be a multi-step
process into an easy single-step operation. The newly added output
formats include Apple's H.264-based iPod video format for iPod and
the MPEG-4 format for iPod, PSP, and web. In addition to these new
features, the latest versions -- Cinematize 2.05 for Mac and
Cinematize 2.02 for Windows -- include additional new features such
as improved compression color control, improved handling of DV Stream
export, as well as several fixes. The latest versions are immediately
available for purchase from the company's web site: http://
www.miraizon.com/store/store.html. Free updaters for existing users
and free demos for new customers, as well as the complete list of the
new features and fixes for Cinematize 2 are all available at: http://
www.miraizon.com/support/downloads.html.
"We are very pleased to add these important new features to
Cinematize 2. The latest versions of Cinematize 2 make it an ideal
companion product for the iPod, allowing users to easily extract
favorite music or movie clips off of DVDs and transfer them over for
listening or viewing on an iPod. The new Cinematize 2 also makes
viewing DVD video clips on a PSP and sharing DVD movie clips on the
web very easy. Previous versions of Cinematize 2 already allowed
this, but direct MPEG-4 output makes it an easy single-step
operation," said the CEO and founder of Miraizon, David Salamon.
Cinematize 2 is a highly acclaimed software package that allows users
to extract audio and video clips off of any unencrypted DVD and save
them in formats compatible with major applications such as Windows
Movie Maker, Adobe Premiere, iMovie, QuickTime, FinalCut, PowerPoint,
iTunes, or even an iPod or PSP. Users can extract clips as short as
fraction of a second or as long as a complete movie. Cinematize 2
offers an interface simple enough for novice users, yet with powerful
enough features and performance to satisfy even demanding audio and
video professionals. Since its release, tens of thousands of
customers have used Cinematize to incorporate DVD clips into their
presentations, to create movie highlights collections, to edit
recorded TV programs, to create still pictures, or to create audio
clips for CDs, iPods, and iTunes. More details on the many features
