Intensely Vivid Images
The second generation of CyberLink's world-renowned
video enhancing technology makes images brighter and
colors more natural. CLEV-2 adjusts a scene's chroma
and luminance to enhance image detail, and thus
achieves the best possible results for LCD/CRT
monitors and playback of overly dark or bright DVD
movies.
Smart Video Deinterlacing
CyberLink's adaptive video deinterlacing technology
ensures a smoother and clearer video image while
playing video files and DVDs. Deinterlacing is
unavoidable as a result of playing interlaced DVD
video on modern high-definition (mainly
non-interlaced) displays (e.g. TVs). Without
advanced deinterlacing, video can appear jagged,
blotchy, shadowy, or blurry. CyberLink's intelligent
deinterlacing technology retains video quality and
minimizes distortion by analyzing video
frame-by-frame and dynamically applying adaptive
deinterlacing only when necessary.
Users also have a choice of deinterlacing
options, including automatic deinterlacing or
user-defined settings. Defining how deinterlacing is
performed and by what algorithm is also an option:
Pixel Adaptive, Median or Bob.
Multi-Display Ratios
PowerDVD 6 supports multiple display ratios, letting
users play 4:3 DVD movies on widescreen displays and
16:9 DVD movies on 4:3 displays. A natural
stretching technology is utilized to avoid losses
that would otherwise be created by Pan & Scan
cropping or Letterbox display.
Cinematic Surround Sound
The second generation of CyberLink's proprietary
audio technology takes 2-channel audio and expands
it into multi-channel audio (e.g. CD expanded to 5.1
channels). CLMEI-2 maps stereo or general surround
sound and converts it for output via 7.1-channel
systems maximum. Music mode, Movie mode, and the
unique Onstage music mode are offered.
High-Definition Audio
High-definition audio provides double or quadruple
the sampling rate and a scale 256X finer than
standard CD audio. PowerDVD is compatible with the
latest high-definition sound boards and Intel's
915/925 chipsets.
Virtual Surround Sound
CyberLink's Virtual Surround technology simulates
the feeling of surround sound when multi-channel
audio is played via two speakers. PowerDVD 6
provides a choice of three audio environments:
Living Room, Theater, and Stadium.
