TCL, A Major Chinese TV Manufacturer, Selects Zapex's Solution for Its Harddisk Recorder TV
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Consumer Electronic Show -- Zapex Research Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of GEO Interactive Media Group Ltd. (LSE: GIM.L), announced today that TCL KING Electronics (Shenzhen) Ltd. has selected Zapex's MPEG video encoder solution for use in TCL's TV embedded Personal Video Recorder (PVR) and set-top boxes. TCL products are marketed in China, Europe, the Middle East and South America. Unlike regular VCR/TV combo sets, with the embedded PVR, the consumer has the option of "Time-Shifting" his viewing habits. He can freeze live TV shows and instantly view the action in slow motion or fast forward and resume from the point he stopped. At the same time, the PVR keeps recording the program in pure digital format. Mr. Zheng Yu, Product & Market Manager at TCL KING Electronics (Shenzhen) Ltd.: "Zapex has proven its excellent technical capability in delivering to TCL the Emblaze(TM) Technology, enabling us to build a cost effective digital audio video recorder in record time. TCL with its annual manufacturing capacity of 6 million TV sets approximately, is aiming to integrate this solution into their TV sets for the benefit of its worldwide customers."
