This month, CyberLink and APC are giving four readers the chance to win a boxed copy of PowerDVD 5 Deluxe, valued at $149.95 each.
PowerDVD 5 Deluxe is a DVD software player that offers premium quality video and audio playback on a PC. It includes leading video and audio technologies to deliver the highest quality viewing and listening experience possible. The program also has feature-rich navigation controls, for an interactive and tailored DVD movie viewing experience.
Exclusive new features include CLEV (CyberLink Eagle Vision), which automatically detects and analyses decoded video in order to evaluate the distribution of tones and make any necessary corrections to enhance the quality and sharpness. Another major enhancement is CLPV (CyberLink Pano Vision), which delivers non-linear stretching of 4:3 movies played on wide-screen display devices (or wide-screen films on 4:3 displays) to reduce distortion (seen in traditional linear stretching) and to give a more natural look. Special cropping techniques further improve the display of the picture. CyberLink has developed a proprietary audio technology, CLMEI (CyberLink Multi-Channel Environment Impression), which gives users with multi-speaker systems the ability to playback 2-channel encoded audio tracks (such as MP3s or audio CDs) in multi-channel virtual surround.
It supports all DVD/CD formats and variants (including DVD Video, DVD+VR, DVD-VR, miniDVD, VCD 2.0 and SVCD), as well as DivX, playback of DVD files from hard drives, DTS digital surround, SRS TruSound XT and Dolby audio.
To be in the running to win a copy, write a haiku in 25 words or less that includes the acronym "DVD".
