Flip4Mac WMV Support for Intel Macs Now Available

Version 2.1 software release features support for Intel Macs and faster
Windows Media encoding for PowerPC Mac users

Nevada City, Calif., July 28, 2006 — Telestream, the media encoding
specialist, today announced availability of Flip4Mac WMV version 2.1
software. Release highlights include universal support for Apple’s
Intel-based Macintosh systems and significantly faster Windows Media
encoding for PowerPC Mac users. The Flip4Mac WMV update is free and
available for download on Microsoft and Flip4Mac websites.

“We are pleased to offer Intel support for the large base of Mac users who
have been eager to receive this release since our announcement in April,”
said Barbara DeHart, Vice President, Flip4Mac Products. “Considerable buzz
has been generated throughout the Mac community as is evidenced by the
immense number of users who offered to participate in our beta testing
process.”

Flip4Mac WMV is comprised of a collection of QuickTime components that
enables Mac OS X users to play, import and export Windows Media files using
QuickTime-based applications. In addition to universal support for
Intel-powered Macintosh systems, version 2.1 includes significantly faster
export optimizations for PowerPC Mac users. PowerPC users will see encode
speeds four to six times faster with version 2.1.

“The Flip4Mac WMV 2.1 release gives users total control over their export
speeds,” comments Derrick Freeman, Video Streaming and Compression
Specialist at GeniusDV and Flip4Mac beta tester. “Our clients need
solutions that can speed up their workflows, and the v2.1 release gives
them the faster export speeds they need. When higher quality output takes
precedence over speed, the flexible export settings in Flip4Mac WMV produce
the results that our clients are looking for.”

Additional new features in Flip4Mac WMV v2.1 include: multi-language audio
support in the WMV player; overlay when importing Windows Media content in
trial mode; support for Web authors to disable save as feature in embedded
streams and improved support for MMS servers and live streams.

The Flip4Mac WMV family includes free playback of Windows Media files and a
range of import and export capabilities priced from $29 to $179. In
January, Microsoft began free distribution of Windows Media Components for
QuickTime, powered by Flip4Mac. Since that time, millions of Flip4Mac
downloads have occurred. The free version 2.1 update is available for
download on www.microsoft.com and www.flip4mac.com.
