Magnify's new Multi-View Player allows both uploaded and discovered video to play on your site, in a single player.

Puts fast growing pre-roll revenue in the hand of all site owners

September 16, 2008 – New York City – Web publishers adopting video have been dealing with two worlds, the video they create and upload to their professional players and the video discovered on the internet and embedded in their pages.
 
The New Magnify Multi-View Player (MVP) brings these two worlds together, providing a seamless player experience that allows sites to blend in-house content and discovered video into a consistent player experience.
 
The MVP player brings sites a complete video solution, embeddable player, back end upload, database management, curation, and moderation tools required to launch and grow a robust video community on your site. Magnify.net customers are finding that the impact of adding video is immediate - as Readers Digest site "TasteOfHome.com" discovered when they added Magnify.net video. They've seen a 50% increase in video views since the sites video channel launched in late August.
 
Magnify.net's video search and aggregation technology is growing rapidly as well, with now more than 5 million videos being added to channels each month.
 
Said Magnify.net CEO Steven Rosenbaum, of the MVP launch, "We've had a large number of requests from customers to be able to embed a Magnify.net style player on their pages. Now, with the MVP we can offer all of the features people have come to expect from our ASP model, but do so on-page with an iframe implementation.”
 
The New Player is offered in a number of colors and sizes as part of Magnify.net's free service. Magnify.net shares ad impressions on a 50/50 basis in this offering. There are additional features including customizable logo's and skinable player offered in the paid Pro and Enterprise offers.
