bit-tech News: Cyberlink to launch new TrueTheatre video-enhancing technologies

news · May 30, 2008

Hi all,

Cyberlink is set to launch several new TrueTheatre video-enhancing

technologies into PowerDVD, including Noise Reduction, Video Stabiliser,

Video Upscaling and FPS upscaling - we've had exclusive hands on time

with all of these technologies.

If you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

*/"Cyberlink, the Taiwanese outfit behind the popular PowerDVD software

is about to launch some new technologies -- we were given exclusive

first access to its new Noise Reduction technologies, Video Stabiliser,

Video Upscaling (re-engineered) and fps upsampling engines.

The products are still in the development stages -- the noise reduction

won't be available until next year, we were told, so the technology was

still a work in progress and "out of its PowerDVD wrapper". Cyberlink is

branding everything top to bottom to match its TrueTheatre range -- if

you've already seen PowerDVD 8 you'll be aware of the TrueTheatre

Surround audio upscaling option that's already nosed its way in there.

First up, the TrueTheatre HD technology -- this is the latest generation

of Cyberlink's CLEV which is specifically designed to upgrade DVDs to HD

resolutions while retaining the quality. Cyberlink admitted it would

never be as good as an original HD print, however, it also will try to

capitalise on the //many DVDs already sold and many HDTVs currently

being sold.

From the demo video, it looks pretty perfect (as we'd expect) although

perhaps a little too sharp in some places. We were told that the

sharpness and other factors were not a changeable setting, it was simply

going to be an on or off option at the current time."/
