Sonic Solutions®, the leader in DVD creation software, announced today that the Iomega® Corporation has chosen Sonic MyDVD and Sonic CinePlayer 1.5 as the DVD creation and playback applications to be bundled with its DVD-recordable drives. With MyDVD and CinePlayer, Iomega DVD drive users are provided with an extremely high-quality, end-to-end DVD creation and playback solution that is both powerful and easy to use.
Based on Sonic technology that has become the standard for Hollywood title production, MyDVD enables Iomega DVD drive users to create DVDs with motion-video menus, animated buttons and high-quality DVD slideshows with transitions and soundtracks while maintaining the highest compatibility across set-top and PC DVD players. MyDVD supports DVD+VR and is OpenDVD(TM)-compliant, enabling previously burned DVDs to be opened, re-edited, updated with new video and photo content and re-burned to recordable DVD media. With Sonic CinePlayer, users of Iomega drives are assured the highest-quality PC playback of their DVD and Video CD titles as well.
"As the industry's leader in DVD creation technologies, Sonic was the clear choice for Iomega," said Michael Johnson, Product General Manager, Branded Products, Iomega Corporation. "Combining Sonic MyDVD and CinePlayer with our Iomega DVD-recordable drives results in an extremely powerful product that provides our customers with a complete solution for creating, archiving, and playing back their movies and digital images on DVD."
"Iomega has long been a leading provider of high-value storage solutions to consumers, and we are honored that it has made Sonic its preferred application for DVD burning with its DVD-recordable drives," said Dave Habiger, Senior Vice-president and General Manager, Desktop Products Group, at Sonic. "Iomega DVD-recordable drives are an ideal solution for consumer and business users who value high-performance hardware and software in a well-integrated and affordable package."
