The world's first DivX Certified portable Blu-ray disc player to be developed has been propelled onto the market by DivX and Panasonic.
Now available in the US, Canada, France and Australia, the portable Panasonic DMP-B15 gives users the opportunity to experience videos produced by digital media company DivX while at home or on the move.
"As the pioneer in the development of DVD and Blu-ray technologies, we are pleased to bring the first portable Blu-ray player to market with DivX Certified video playback," said Kazuhiko Nakamura, group manager of product technology at Panasonic's network business group.
"DivX Certification enables us to offer added value to our customer base by enhancing their viewing experience and providing them with true portability of their high-quality DivX videos on innovative Panasonic products," he added.
A number of Panasonic products already carry the DivX certification, including DVD players, in-car players and high definition televisions.
DivX creates, licences and distributes digital video technologies that span the "three screens" of the PC, the television and mobile devices, the company's website states.
