FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                 OPENTV REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND 1999 REVENUE


                     LEADING WORLDWIDE PROVIDER OF DIGITAL
                   INTERACTIVE TELEVISION SOFTWARE POSTS 1999
                        REVENUE INCREASE OF 174 PERCENT

Mountain View, CA -- January 25, 2000 -- OpenTV (Nasdaq and Amsterdam Stock
Exchange: OPTV), the leading worldwide provider of software to enable digital
interactive television, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter
and calendar year ended December 31, 1999.

For the fourth quarter of 1999, revenues were $8.4 million, up 150 percent from
the $3.4 million reported for the fourth quarter of 1998.

          . Royalties for the fourth quarter increased 426 percent to $4.7
            million, compared to $0.9 million in the comparable period of 1998.

          . License fees were $1.1 million, an increase of 100 percent from $0.5
            million in the fourth quarter of 1998.

          . Services and other revenue increased 36 percent to $2.6 million from
            $1.9 million for the same quarter of 1998.

"This impressive financial performance, stimulated by significant growth of our
leading customer BSkyB and on-going deployment of new markets worldwide,
combined with our growing number of strategic alliances, firmly place OpenTV as
the global leader in digital interactive television," said Jan Steenkamp,
president and chief executive officer. "In addition, we have concluded
application development agreements to produce new interactive services for
television worldwide that are designed to generate recurring revenue. We are
making a significant investment in hiring people with the kind of talent and
experience that will accelerate the growth of our global business," Mr.
Steenkamp said. "Looking ahead, we are dedicated to build upon this strong
momentum with many more significant Company achievements in 2000."

Excluding the impact of certain non-cash charges, the Company's pro-forma net
loss for the fourth quarter was $4.0 million, compared to a net loss of $3.7
million for the fourth quarter of 1998. This translates to pro-forma diluted net
loss per share of 10 cents in the fourth quarter of 1999 compared to 11 cents
for the same quarter in fiscal 1998. Including the impact of non-cash charges,
the Company reported a net loss of $113.1 million for the fourth quarter of
1999, which translates to a diluted loss per share of $2.93;

1999 Financial Results

For all of 1999, revenues were $26.0 million, a 174 percent increase from $9.5
million in 1998.

During 1999 the Company reported total non-cash charges of $114.4 million,
including $95.1 million associated with the October 1999 strategic investment
round, $5.0 million for warrants granted to General Instrument Corporation, now
part of Motorola, in connection with the joint technology and marketing
agreements signed in December 1999, $13.1 million in stock-based compensation
charges, $1.2 million in amortization of intellectual property acquired from
Thomson in March 1999 and minority interest of $2.2 million. Excluding these
charges, the Company's pro-forma net loss for 1999 was $9.3 million or 32 cents
per diluted share. Including the charges, the net loss was $121.6 million or
$4.18 per diluted share for 1999. These numbers compare to a net loss of $14.3
million or 43 cents per diluted share for 1998.

As of December 31, 1999, OpenTV had cash and short-term investments of $186.5
million, total assets of $239.6 million, total liabilities of $12.2 million and
stockholders equity of $227.4 million.
