The OS carries the DRM not the video-codec - IMO they are glued together.

"Additionally, the two companies will work together to integrate digital rights management (DRM) technology into the devices to ensure secure playback of high-quality digital video"

and "We feel that e.Digital's applications integration capabilities provide an excellent complement to our advanced video concepts. Their experience with digital rights management and secure content applications will provide a real strength in developing the DivX video standard."

Do you know who Greenhall is?

Cassandra, I know you have read this many times. From the Sept. 10th PR on the digEplayer.

"Our engineers have expanded e.Digital’s MicroOS™ platform to add secure video playback technology through the development of proprietary encryption and hardware."

Now what is it that you do not understand about those words.

From your post: There is no proof or even evidence that e.Digital had anything to do with the security measures for the digEplayer

This information came from the company.

No proof or evidence??? You must have missed this portion of the Divx PR you cited:

"...the two companies will work together to integrate digital rights management (DRM) technology into the devices to ensure secure playback of high-quality digital video."..."We are very excited to work together with DivXNetworks to design and develop a line of DivX Certified CE devices that provide consumers with the quality and convenience of DVD-quality digital video while offering state-of-the-art digital rights management technology for content providers, said Steve Ferguson, Vice President of Business Development for e.Digital."

The PR also quotes Divx CEO Jordan Greenhall as saying (in reference to e.Digital) "Their experience with digital rights management and secure content applications will provide a real strength in developing the DivX video standard.”

And as for the existence of a "partnership", Greenhall clearly stated his concept of the relationship: “This partnership is a key step in our hardware strategy to integrate DivX technology across a range of next-generation convergence devices.” I believe that the two CEOs calling their corporate relationship a partnership clearly trumps your bogus claim to the contrary.
