Video compression technology company DivXNetworks and DVD software manufacturers CyberLink have announced that the professional version of DivX’s technology, DivX Pro, will now be included in all CyberLink products sold in retail and online outlets.
DivX Pro will be available in CyberLink’s DVD playback, burning, authoring, and video editing software.
“CyberLink, a true innovator in the field of digital video software, has long been a valued DivXNetworks partner,” said Chester Ng, senior sales manager at DivXNetworks. “By bundling DivX Pro in their complete product line, CyberLink will enable all their users to create the highest quality digital video files at sizes small enough to be burned to a standard data CD and easily played back on over 100 different brands of DivX-certified DVD players from major manufacturers, more than 20 million of which will ship worldwide by the end of 2004.”
DivX Pro is DivXNetwork’s professional version of its video compression technology and offers near-DVD quality video. The company has partnerships with DVD manufacturers that include Philips, Samsung, and JVC – allowing DivX videos to be played in their DVD players.
“DivX Pro is one of the most popular video formats for its outstanding video quality and performance,” said Alice C. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. “We are glad to work with DivXNetworks to provide this video format in CyberLink’s line of multimedia software products.”
