RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, NC -- 05/20/08 -- Trinity Convergence today announced that Digital Multimedia Technology (DMT) of Seoul, Korea has selected its VeriCall Edge embedded multimedia software for a digital home entertainment and video conferencing system that DMT is developing for its network operator and service provider customers.

The new product, named Video Phone Adapter (VPA) DMV2000, will be commercially available from DMT in the second half of 2008 and will serve as a digital multimedia and communications center for broadband consumers. VeriCall Edge software provides the embedded media processing engine, including the integrated VoIP calling and video telephony functionality. The VPA DMV2000 will also provide place-shifting functionality -- the ability to watch TV where you want, when you want -- using its unique digital multimedia storage and delivery platform.

DMT is developing the product for network operators and service providers that want to offer a higher level of service to their residential broadband and digital entertainment customers. In addition to enabling 2-way high-resolution videoconferencing, the VPA DMV2000 will provide consumers with greater flexibility and mobility in terms of how and where they receive, store and watch their digital media.

"Our continued success in digital multimedia products relies on our ability to deliver innovative IP-connected devices to the marketplace," stated Mr. Hee-Kee Lee, CEO of DMT. "VeriCall Edge software, and the IP communications and networking expertise of the Trinity Convergence team, allow us to accelerate our product design and development cycles. As a result, we will be delivering a one-of-a-kind offering that targets the rapidly growing IP-connected home market."

"We are excited to be collaborating with DMT and to see our VeriCall Edge software providing the IP video conferencing solution in such a unique product," stated Brian Lees, vice president of sales and business development for APAC and EMEA, at Trinity Convergence. "Device and service convergence is driving the trend to integrate IP multimedia and communications functionality into digital entertainment devices such as set-top-boxes and DVRs. The performance, quality and security inherent in our VeriCall software positions us well to serve this growing market."

VeriCall Edge software provides a complete high-fidelity multimedia framework and all of the critical IP networking and quality of service (QoS) components required to ensure high-quality, low bit-rate video conferencing in real-time. DMT is using the wideband voice and H.264 video conferencing technology that is part of VeriCall Edge software.
