DTS-HD Decoding For UltraViolet Content To Be Featured in CyberLink PowerDVD

DTS-HD Will Unlock the Full Potential of High-Resolution Downloaded Video Content by Pairing it with Powerful Multi-Channel Surround Sound

CALABASAS, Calif. (Oct 22, 2013) - DTS, Inc. (Nasdaq: DTSI), a leader in high-definition audio solutions and audio enhancement technologies, today announced that CyberLinks popular media player, PowerDVD 13, will add support for UltraViolet Common File Format (CFF) content encoded in DTS-HD. CyberLink is working closely with DTS to optimize PowerDVD to deliver the same immersive 7.1 channel surround sound environment for UltraViolet content, that is currently available when enjoying DTS-HD encoded Blu-ray Discs and DVDs on PowerDVD.

"How we consume media entertainment is constantly evolving so its essential that we keep PowerDVD up-to-date with the latest developments to ensure that our customers enjoy the best possible playback experience," said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. "One of PowerDVDs key strengths is its compatibility with a vast array of formats and were excited to be working with DTS to bring the advanced audio technology of DTS-HD to our customers who watch UltraViolet content on PowerDVD."

DTS-HD technology is designed to deliver an unsurpassed immersive surround sound listening environment-up to 7.1 channels-from streamed and downloaded content, including new UltraViolet CFF content, as well as from DVDs or Blu-ray Discs. The advanced audio quality provides sound that is exactly as the creator intended it to be heard.

"Today, PCs continue to play a key role in the consumption of entertainment content," said Brian Towne, executive vice president and chief operating officer at DTS. "CyberLinks PowerDVD media player has long stood as a popular choice for enjoying physical media on PCs; by upgrading to DTS-HD surround sound on UltraViolet content, CyberLinks customers will soon be able to enjoy the same immersive DTS audio experience found on DVDs and Blu-ray, on UltraViolet CFF content."
