DVD Xpress DX2 Overview
DVD Xpress DX2 supports today’s most popular video formats including MPEG4 and
DivX video. All of the video formats are supported by an advanced video encoding chipset
inside the DVD Xpress DX2 which means that DVD Xpress DX2 does all the work instead
of your PC. Not only does this take the work load off your PC, but hardware compression
of the video results in better quality with smaller file sizes. This means that you get more
video on a disc, and with better quality.
Want more control? ArcSoft ShowBiz® DVD 2 is easy-to-use software that turns home
videos into fun-to-watch movies! Preserve your precious movies on DVD or CD. Create
video for the Web or mobile devices to share with family and friends. Enhance your movies
