DivX and Veoh announce an agreement that will bring Veoh’s leading Internet television service to viewers through the DivX Connected platform. The partnership will enable consumers to easily access many of their favorite Web videos from Veoh on a variety of consumer electronics devices.

Under the terms of the agreement, Veoh will make some of its most exciting and unique video content from its popular Veoh.com site accessible on DivX Connected devices, extending the content experience beyond the limits of the PC and into the living room. The first DivX Connected device available to consumers from D-Link is presently for sale online in the UK, France, and Germany and will be released in the US in 2008.
