bit-tech News: Cyberlink to launch new TrueTheatre video-enhancing technologies - 05/30/08 11:28 AM
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.

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."/
