 CyberLink Partners with
MediaTek to Deliver DVD-R Dual Layer Recording


Taipei, Taiwan----July 1st,
2005----
CyberLink Corp., a leading developer in providing integrated
solutions for the Digital Home, announced today that CyberLink Power2Go and
PowerBackup - featuring DVD-R Dual Layer DVD-R (DL) recording utilizing layer
jump recording (LJR) technology - now supports MediaTek's optical storage
chipsets.


Both CyberLink Power2Go and CyberLink PowerBackup are compatible
with MediaTek chipsets and support DVD-R (DL) recording that utilizes LJR
technology. Different from sequential recording (SR), LJR technology alternates
and distributes data evenly between both layers during the burning process. Not
only will this allow for multi-session burning, it also reduces background noise
and enhances signal quality. Therefore, higher disc reading compatibility is
achieved along with the benefit of burning video, TV recording, data, music, and
photos onto dual layer discs capable of storing up to 8.5 GB of data compared to
4.7 GB single layer discs.


"We chose to collaborate with CyberLink on a dual layer solution
because of their world-renown expertise in the field of recording technology,"
said Alex Chen, Director of Sales and Marketing of MediaTek Inc. "Our successful
implementation of DVD-R dual layer recording utilizing layer-jump recording
technology via MediaTek solution illustrates the extent to which both companies
are assuming a pioneering role in delivering burning solutions."


"We are excited and proud to announce CyberLink Power2Go's and
PowerBackup's support for DVD-R (DL) recording utilizing LJR technology with
MediaTek chipsets. The current climate of DVD recording is gravitating towards
proven solutions from hardware and software partnerships, providing a distinct
advantage for OEM customers," said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. "CyberLink
software technologies coupled with MediaTek's IC chipset solutions ensure OEM
customers support for the latest recording technologies."
