InterVU Unveils PreVU Video Player Plug-in; Open-Standard Video for the
World Wide Web

PreVU plays any MPEG video from any HTML server, allowing any Web site to
integrate the power of video

San Diego, CA--InterVU Inc. announced the release of the beta version of
their PreVU video player, a plug-in for the Netscape Navigator 2.0 Web
browser. PreVU is the first video player that allows users to preview MPEG
(industry standard) videos before and while downloading across any TCP/IP
connection, saving online time and enhancing their browsing experience.
For Web page developers, PreVU makes video more practical by reducing
bandwidth requirements and eliminating the need for a proprietary server.
PreVU for Netscape Navigator 2.0 for the Windows 95 or Windows NT
operating system is available free from InterVU's Web site
(http://www.intervu.com).

"PreVU is a breakthrough for Web users and content developers," says Arnie
Karush, InterVU's VP of Product Development. "With PreVU, users download
only the videos they want for as long as they want, with no compromise in
video quality. Web page developers can cost-effectively use the power of
video to make their pages more informative and exciting."

"PreVU provides first-frame display on the Web page and 'click-and-play'
streaming preview (viewing) of the video while downloading. Once
downloaded, the video can be replayed at full speed from the computer's
cache memory-without the use of MPEG decoder hardware. No video frames are
dropped, even over a 14.4 Kbps modem," says Brian Kenner, InterVU's Chief
Technology Officer and co-founder. "PreVU's open-standards approach lets
developers incorporate video without purchasing a proprietary HTML or
video server, and its first-frame and streaming preview features reduce
server bandwidth requirements as well."

Users and developers can get the current (beta) version of PreVU from the
InterVU Web site (http://www.intervu.com), along with demonstrations using
short video clips, links to MPEG video sites, and information about PreVU
and InterVU. The production releases of PreVU will include audio
capability and Macintosh support.

InterVU Inc. develops interactive video delivery software products for the
Internet, the World Wide Web, and Intranets. InterVU's affordable,
high-quality software makes interactive video both practical and
cost-effective.
