USA Video Interactive Corp. is Official

Digital Watermarking Company of the

2004 American Film Market


February 3, 2004  - OLD LYME, CONNECTICUT – USA Video Interactive Corp. (OTCBB: USVO; TSX: US; BSE/Frankfurt: USF; http://www.usvo.com/)


USA Video Interactive Corp. (USVO) announced today that it is the Official Digital Watermarking Company of the 2004 American Film Market.  The American Film Market is an annual gathering of more than 300 motion picture companies and 7,000 film executives, conducted by the American Film Marketing Association (AFMA) and being held at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel in Santa Monica, California, from 25 February through 3 March, 2004.


As co-sponsor of the American Film Market, USVO will demonstrate how its MediaSentinel(TM) digital watermarking technology will help film buyers and filmmakers protect their investments and help deter piracy.  The piracy of film screeners and theatrical releases has resulted in significant financial losses to the movie industry.  As a result, piracy-deterrence technologies such as MediaSentinel™ are of great interest at this time.  Hundreds of films are financed, packaged, licensed and greenlit at the American Film Market.


USA Video Interactive Corp. will be conducting a press conference at the American Film Market on Friday, February 27, 2004, at 1pm PST.  This press conference will include a demonstration of the MediaSentinel™ technology.  Company officials will also be available for private customer and press briefings throughout the duration of the American Film Market.


MediaSentinel™ is a suite of software based upon USVO’s proprietary patent-pending core content protection technology, which is available for licensing.  Within weeks of its official release, MediaSentinel™ has already generated a high degree of interest within the media and technology communities.  On January 27, 2004, USVO announced its first non-exclusive licensee, Tri-Vision International Ltd./Ltée., which holds the patents for the v-chip, a technology that helps consumers ensure a safe and family-friendly television viewing experience and which is being implemented in a variety of consumer electronics products.  Tri-Vision has a license to resell the USVO MediaSentinel(TM) technology.


MediaSentinel will be useful to numerous interests, including content developers, such as movie studios and TV programmers; to service providers such as cable, satellite and broadband telecoms that distribute digital media content over broadband networks; and to makers of infrastructure products and technologies used in the distribution of digital video content.


Previous MediaSentinel news releases and product information are available from USA Video Interactive Corp., by visiting the Company’s web site.  Additional product and technical information, and details of its licensing, reseller and support programs, are available by contacting USVO directly.
