PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
Because this is a summary, it does not contain all the information about us
that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus and the
documents incorporated by reference carefully before you decide to purchase the
shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus. You should also
carefully consider the more detailed information that is incorporated by
reference in this prospectus, including the financial statements and related
notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Amended Annual Report
on Form 10-K/A for the year ended March 31, 2000, and our risk factors included
as Item 5 of our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Commission on
August 11, 2000.
Gemstar - TV Guide International, Inc.
On July 12, 2000, Gemstar acquired TV Guide, Inc., a Delaware corporation.
TV Guide is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gemstar. In connection with the
closing of the acquisition, on July 12, 2000 we changed our name to "Gemstar -
TV Guide International, Inc."
Gemstar develops, markets and licenses proprietary technologies and systems
that simplify and enhance consumers' interaction with electronics products and
other platforms that deliver video, programming information and other data. TV
Guide is a media and communications company that provides print, passive and
interactive program listings guides to households, distributes programming to
cable television systems and direct-to-home satellite providers, and markets
satellite-delivered programming to C-band satellite dish owners. We seek to
have our technologies widely licensed, incorporated and accepted as the
technologies and systems of choice by consumer electronics manufacturers,
service providers (such as owners or operators of cable systems, telephone
networks, Internet service providers, direct broadcast satellite providers,
wireless systems and other multi-channel video programming distributors),
software developers and consumers.
Our VCR Plus+ was introduced in 1990. This system is widely accepted as a
de facto industry standard for programming VCRs and is currently incorporated
into virtually every major brand of VCR sold worldwide. VCR Plus+ enables
consumers to record a television program by simply entering a proprietary code
into a VCR or television equipped with the VCR Plus+ technology. These
proprietary codes are printed next to television program listings in over 1,800
publications worldwide, with a combined circulation of over 330 million.
We have also developed and acquired a large portfolio of technologies and
intellectual property for implementing our interactive program guides which
enable consumers to navigate through, sort, select and record television
programming. These technologies have been licensed for, or incorporated into,
televisions, VCRs, TV-VCR combination units, cable set-top boxes, integrated
satellite receiver decoders, personal computers, PCTVs and Internet appliances
and interactive services provided thereon. We believe that with the increase in
programming content and number of accessible channels, our technologies will
become an increasingly important tool for assisting consumers in sorting,
selecting and recording television programming. We also believe that our
interactive program guides are an attractive vehicle for the delivery of
advertising and other content to consumers.
In January 2000, we entered the electronic book publishing business through
the acquisition of the two leading electronic book companies NuvoMedia, Inc.,
the maker of the Rocket eBook, and
2
<PAGE>
SoftBook Press, Inc. the maker of the SoftBook Reader. The electronic book
publishing business, another application of our strategy of developing,
marketing and licensing proprietary technologies, supports our strategy to
enhance consumer interactivity with electronic products and provide electronic
enhancements for traditional consumer activities. We believe this business
opportunity will permit us to create a pre-eminent platform for the distribution
and sale, in a secure and protected distribution environment, of electronically
based reading material, using consumer-friendly state-of-the-art reading
devices, offering a broad range of books, magazines, newspapers and other
materials.
Through TV Guide, we provide TV Guide Magazine, the most widely circulated
paid weekly magazine in the United States, to households and newsstands. It is
printed in over 200 separate editions and had circulation of approximately 11
million as of December 31, 1999. In addition, we provide customized monthly
program guides for cable and satellite operators.
Through TV Guide, we supply satellite-delivered on-screen program promotion
and guide services, both nationally and internationally. Our customers are
cable television systems and other multi-channel video programming distributors.
Our services include TV Guide Channel, Sneak Prevue, TV Guide Interactive and TV
Guide Online. TV Guide Channel is a passive program listing guide that reaches
approximately 50 million households in more than 2,400 cable systems. Sneak
Prevue promotes pay-per-view movies to over 34 million households. TV Guide
Interactive provides a service that allows television viewers to retrieve on
demand continuously updated program guide information through their cable
television system. TV Guide Online is an Internet-based program listings guide.
We also provide direct-to-home satellite services, satellite distribution
of video entertainment services, software development and systems integration
services and satellite transmission services for private networks. Through
Superstar/Netlink Group, we market satellite entertainment programming to
approximately 1.0 million C-band direct-to-home satellite dish owners in North
America. In November 1999, we announced an exclusive direct broadcast satellite
marketing alliance agreement with EchoStar to convert the existing and inactive
C-band customers of Superstar/Netlink Group to the high power (small satellite
dish) DISH Network service. Under the conversion process, Echostar will
compensate Superstar/Netlink Group on a per subscriber basis, both upon
successful conversion and with residual payments over time. We own 80% of
Superstar/Netlink Group. Through UVTV, we market and distribute WGN (Chicago),
KTLA (Los Angeles) and WPIX (New York), three independent satellite-delivered
television "superstations" to cable television systems and other multi-channel
video programming distributors. WGN reaches in excess of 46 million households.
In addition, we offer six programming packages and provide programming packages
to satellite master antenna televisions systems. Through ODS Technologies, we
market and distribute Television Games Network, a channel launched in August
1999 that is devoted to horse racing. Through SSDS, Inc., we provide software
development and systems integration services to large organizations with complex
computer needs. We own 70% of SSDS, Inc. Our SpaceCom subsidiary provides
satellite-delivered point-to-multipoint audio and data transmission services for
various customers, including radio programmers, paging network operators,
financial information providers, news services and other private business
networks.
Our principal executive offices are located at 135 North Los Robles Avenue,
Suite 800, Pasadena, California 91101 (telephone (626) 792-5700).

the Commission on August 11, 2000, which is incorporated by reference into this
prospectus. See "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference."
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements about Gemstar contained in this prospectus and
incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including statements containing
the words "believes" or "will", and words of similar import, constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws.
These forward-looking statements involve numerous known or unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance
or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance
or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those in forward-looking statements, some of which are beyond the control of
Gemstar, include:
. changes in the regulation of cable television and/or satellite

. loss of the cable and/or satellite compulsory licenses provided by
federal law;
. the willingness of cable and satellite television systems to acquire and
install new equipment that will allow us effectively to market our
interactive technology;
. our ability to keep pace with technological developments to protect our
intellectual property rights and defend against claims by others
asserting infringement of their intellectual property rights;
. a reduction in demand for advertising;
. rapid technological changes;
. competition; and
. other factors referenced in our reports incorporated by reference.
Given these uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any such
factor or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of the
forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or
developments. For a further discussion of certain risks that purchasers of our
common stock should consider, you should refer to our Current Report on Form 8-
K/A filed with the Commission on August 11, 2000, which is incorporated by
reference into this prospectus. See "Incorporation of Certain Documents by

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are registering 3,856,876 shares of our common stock with this
prospectus on behalf of the selling stockholders named in this prospectus and
the donees and pledgees selling shares of our common stock received from a named
selling stockholder after the date of this prospectus. The selling stockholders
will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the timing,
manner and size of each sale. We have agreed to bear all expenses in connection
with the registration of the shares of our common stock offered and being sold
by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will bear all brokerage
commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to sales of the
shares. Sales of shares may be affected by the selling stockholders from time
to time in one or more types of transactions (which may include block
transactions) on the NASDAQ National Market, in the over-the-counter market, in
negotiated transactions, or a combination of such methods of sale, at market
prices prevailing at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices. These
transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers.
The selling stockholders may affect sales of shares:
. In ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits
purchasers or executes unsolicited orders, or transactions in which the
broker may acquire the shares as principal and resell the shares into
the public market in any manner permitted by the selling stockholders
under this prospectus;
. In connection with the pledge of shares registered hereunder to a
broker/dealer or other pledgee to secure debts or other obligations, and
the sale of the shares so pledged upon a default;
. Through the writing or settlement of non-traded and exchange-traded put
or call option contracts, and by means of the establishment or
settlement of other hedging transactions including forward sale
transactions. In addition, the selling stockholders may loan their
shares to broker/dealers who are counterparties to hedging transactions
and such broker/dealers may sell the shares so borrowed into the public
market.
Broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts,
concessions, or commissions from the selling stockholder and/or the purchasers
of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as
principal or both (this compensation to a particular broker-dealer might be in
excess of customary commissions).
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with
the sale of shares might be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of
Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. In this case, any commissions received
by broker dealers and any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them while
acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions
under the Securities Act. We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders
named in this prospectus against certain liabilities, including liabilities
arising under the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may agree to
indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions
involving sales of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities
arising under the Securities Act.
-10-
<PAGE>
Because the selling stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within
the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, the selling stockholders
will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
We will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required, pursuant to Rule
424(b) under the Securities Act upon being notified by a selling stockholder
that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker/dealer for the
sale of shares through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or
secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer. Such supplement
will disclose:
. the name of each selling stockholder and of the participating
broker/dealer(s),
. the number of shares involved,
. the price at which such shares were sold,
. the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such
broker/dealer(s), where applicable,
. that such broker/dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify
the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus,
and
. other facts material to the transaction.
LEGAL MATTERS

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide for indemnification of
the officers and directors of Gemstar to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") provides
that a Delaware corporation has the power to eliminate or limit the personal
liability of a director for violations of the director's fiduciary duty, except
(i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section
174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of
dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions), or (iv) for any
transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit.
Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify any
persons, including officers and directors, who are, or are threatened to be
made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed legal action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that
such person was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of such corporation or enterprise. The
indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests
and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and
directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial
approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.
Where an officer is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action referred to above, the
II-1
<PAGE>
corporation must indemnify him against the expenses which such officer or
director actually and reasonably incurred.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act; and
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement;
II-2
<PAGE>
provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) above do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 13 and Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering as such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5) That, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
