Press Release Summary: Converter of media data to AVC/H.264, MPEG-2, DV and
Uncompressed AVI formats.

Press Release Body: RUSSIA, TOMSK (October 4, 2007) - Today, Elecard has officially
announced the release of its long-anticipated Converter Studio v2.0, a program for
movie file conversion to MPEG-2 and AVC/H.264 formats at high speed with high
picture quality.

Sporting a new look and packed with all the advanced features of a first class
converter, this application will make the whole process of conversion a lot faster
and easier than ever before.
Coming in two versions, one for amateurs and one for professionals, Elecard
Converter Studio will be able to satisfy the most demanding needs of customers, no
matter how complicated their tasks may be.

"We're not trying to keep up to the technology and implement features that others
already have, instead, we're setting the pace that others have to follow. Elecard
Converter Studio is the product that our company takes a lot of pride in and is
always trying to improve. Compared to the previous versions, this one has much more
features as well as a new graphical design," said Andrey Posdnyakov, Elecard group
president. "We hope that our customers will truly appreciate this product that we've
put so much effort in."

The Watch folder mode, which is used to scan a specified folder for newly added
media files, can now be run as a Windows® service and that will really automate your
conversion tasks. AVI DV25 video encoding support, full-featured DVD and separate
chapter encoding support, audio signal strength adjustment, and creating of
multiprogram Transport Stream are just a few features off the list of newly
implemented and improved ones.

Professionals will definitely appreciate the full control over encoder settings as
well as the ability to choose optimal encoding parameters from the profile list.
Content creators, broadcasters, digital signage and postproduction companies that
work with large amounts of media content will find this product more than just
useful for the processing of data and getting the best quality possible.

There are many applications on the market that claim to perform similar tasks pretty
well, but when we say our application delivers high picture quality at high speed,
we mean it. You are welcome to try the demo version and make your own choice.
