MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 6, 1998--

A New Video Platform

Chyron Corporation (NYSE:CHY), manufacturer of the world's premiere character generators and graphics equipment, today announced the introduction of Duet(TM), a new media processing platform that provides the primary component for a variety of real-time video applications.

Duet brings a unique approach to the challenge of real-time video performance within an open-system framework. This platform is also Chyron's DTV solution. At its core is an architecture that supports 40 simultaneous, full bandwidth video streams along with an object- oriented 2D/3D graphics engine that is scalable to any ATSC resolution and scan rate. In no other video platform is the integration of "off the shelf" sub-systems with Windows NT and specialized processing hardware so powerful.

C-Cube Debuts Revolutionary MPEG-2 Codecs for Professional and Prosumer Markets at NAB '98
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 6, 1998-- C-Cube Microsystems today debuted its new family of MPEG-2 codec products, leveraging the critical market advantages of its combined encoder/decoder (codec) architecture to advance professional and prosumer video applications.

C-Cube offers the industry's most comprehensive set of solutions for the digital broadcast, professional studio, post production and content authoring markets. C-Cube today introduced the DVxpress family of nonlinear editing solutions, establishing MPEG as a viable format for editing. The DVxpress 7112 and DVxpress 7110 are the industry's first single-chip MPEG-2 codecs to offer Frame Accurate MPEG Editing (FAME) as well as dual-stream decoding in a single processor. The DVxpert 6110 codec is the industry's first single-chip 4:2:2 codec for professional studio applications, providing a high-performance solution for professional broadcast editing and manipulation applications.

''Increased digital video bandwidth offers new application opportunities industry-wide,'' stated Fermi Wang, general manager for C-Cube Microsystems' PC/Codec Division. ''C-Cube is driving the industry's fundamental shift to MPEG by delivering advanced video solutions that address critical image quality and creative control issues for industry professionals.''

While other companies deliver encoder-only solutions, C-Cube developed its codec architecture to simplify the use of high-quality, highly compressed digital video and enable OEMs to deliver it to their users at a low cost. Encoder-only solutions must rely on discrete decoders to view or playback encoded video streams, complicating design issues and increasing the overall system cost.

C-Cube's complete family of MPEG-2 compression and codec products include:

DVxpert 6120 - MPEG-2 Dual-Chip 4:2:2 Codec for High-End Studio Applications
DVxpert 6110 - Single-chip MPEG-2 4:2:2 Codec Introduced Today!
DVxpert 5110 - Single-chip 4:2:0 Broadcast Codec
CLM4730Z - DVD Authoring Encoder with Statistical Variable Bit Rate.
DVxpress 7112 - Professional Nonlinear Editing Codec Introduced Today!
DVxpress 7110 - Prosumer Nonlinear Editing Codec Introduced Today!
