BARCELONA, Spain--Feb. 14, 2006--InterVideo(R), Inc. (NASDAQ:IVII), a leading
provider of multimedia technologies to handheld device OEMs and ODMs, announced
today that it will showcase the next-generation 8-megapixel camera phone from
Xcute Mobile Corporation during the 3GSM World Congress Show, Stand H65, Hall

Well-known for its superior codec technology, InterVideo's patented codec algorithm
enables consumers to record high-quality video clips without the jerkiness typical
of handheld video cameras. Users will also be able to enjoy playback of crisp
and clear picture quality of their recorded video clips with ease. InterVideo
has been a long-time partner of Xcute, an innovative mobile phone design company
based in Taiwan, since the development of their previous DV1 and DV2 cell phones.
Both companies have again collaborated together to deliver consumers the latest
in the Xcute next-generation 8-megapixel phones.
InterVideo has integrated its superior MPEG-4 codecs with Texas Instruments'
DM270 platform in the Xcute GSM phone. The first 8-megapixel GSM phone in the
world, the phone features InterVideo's advanced audio codec to playback MP3 and
WMA files. The Xcute cell phone also includes InterVideo's MPEG-4 and DivX(R)
video codec which allows consumers to record real time video clips at several
resolutions up to VGA (640x480) at 30 fps (frames-per-second). The high-resolution
camera phones deliver superior digital image quality that can be viewed on desktops,
TVs, or other compatible handheld devices. In addition, the 8-megapixel phone
can provide users with background music slideshow and media player features.

for integration in our latest 8-megapixel GSM phone," said Winston Lee, Senior
Manager of Marketing and Sales from Xcute Mobile Corporation. "We are delighted
to work in conjunction with InterVideo and will continue to provide the latest

come to expect from InterVideo," said Steve Ro, President and CEO of InterVideo.
