<p>XLR8 XtraView... all-in-one video transfer for iDVD, and iPod ships!<br />
Easy full-screen capture and transfer from VHS, Hi-8, DVD or<br />
satellite to iDVD and iPod .</p>
<p>Buford, Georgia, October 31, 2006 - Daystar Technology, the leader in<br />
USB based video capture on the Mac, delivered another milestone in<br />
multimedia creation... the introduction of the new XLR8 XtraView,<br />
video transfer solution for Mac OS X. This new USB 2.0 based,<br />
all-in-one package, integrates easy full-screen, "click and record"<br />
video capture with a fully native, fully universal QuickTime<br />
conversion interface. The result is an end-to-end video transfer<br />
solution for moving non-DV (Digital Video) sources like VHS, Hi-8,<br />
laser and satellite, to iMovie, iDVD, DVD, CD and iPods. -</p>
<p>Everything you need.</p>
<p>XtraView includes everything users need to capture, edit and create:</p>
<p>+ The XtraView device allows both audio and video to be capture via a<br />
single USB 2.0<br />
device (no sound-in port required!).</p>
<p>+ The XtraView capture software uses a simple "click and record"<br />
interface to transform<br />
any S-Video or RCA video source into QuickTime movies.</p>
<p>+ The bundled XtraView Exporter package allows uses to convert their<br />
QuickTime captures<br />
for use in iMovie, iDVD, or viewing on iPods. and TV!</p>
<p>+ The XtraView package also include ArcSoft's VideoImpression 2.0<br />
software which integrates<br />
capture and creation into one simple iMovie-line application. Unlike<br />
iMovie though, VideoImpression works easily with smaller video sizes<br />
(iMovie forces all files to the larger DV formats).</p>
<p>"What does XtraView give users? Well... for the first time ever, Mac<br />
users can transform their non-DV videos into modern DVD and iPod<br />
video fomats, without paying an arm and a leg.", said Gary Dailey,<br />
president of Daystar. "Literally, XtraView unlocks the multimedia<br />
potential for the millions of Mac users with pre-digital video source<br />
material."</p>
<p>Available Now.</p>
<p> XtraView is currently shipping at a MSRP of $129 It's available<br />
direct via Daystar Technology (<a href="http://daystar-store.com" title="http://daystar-store.com">http://daystar-store.com</a>), and through<br />
leading resellers.</p>
<p>Supported Systems.</p>
<p> XtraView is designed to work with all modern Apple systems. It<br />
requires only USB 2.0, and Mac OS X 10.3.8 or later. QuickTime 7 and<br />
Mac OS X 10.4 are recommended for easy VHS/DVD-to-iPod<br />
transformations.</p>
