DivXNetworks today announced that it will provide video encoding, compression and digital rights management services for the groundbreaking APS digEplayer.
The APS digEplayer, to be deployed by Alaska Airlines, will feature secure, full-length movies from Twentieth Century Fox in high-quality DivX video. Unlike traditional inflight entertainment systems, the state-of-the-art digEplayer is a portable device that puts the viewing choice in the hands of customers, initially allowing passengers to choose from a total of nine full-length movies while traveling. Alaska Airlines will offer digEplayer units beginning in October on a number of transcontinental flights.
