WinDVD now supports BD-Video Profile 1.1 for high-definition, picture-in-picture playback on Blu-ray Discs.
Corel Corporation today announced that WinDVD® is the world’s first Blu-ray Disc playback software to receive BD-Video Profile 1.1 certification.
By receiving certification for BD-Video Profile 1.1, WinDVD has passed the stringent standards and guidelines set by the Blu-ray Disc Association to ensure the best possible user experience.
With BD-Video Profile 1.1 support, WinDVD users can now use picture-in-picture functionality to playback a smaller high-definition video in the corner of their screen while watching the high-definition movie on the background main screen. With this enhanced functionality, movie fans can now watch the director’s commentary as an overlay to the action on screen.
WinDVD with BD-Video Profile 1.1 support will be available beginning in early 2008.
