Nero, in digital media technology, announced that ESS Technology’s ES8380/ES8381 Phoenix HD Enhanced DVD processor is Nero Digital Certified. Nero Digital, co-developed by Nero and Ateme, is based on industry standards MPEG-4 Video (MPEG-4 SP/ASP and AVC/H.264) and MPEG-4 Audio (LC AAC und HE AAC) compression technologies.
The Phoenix ES8380/ES8381 single-chip HD Enhanced DVD processor, which features an integrated servo controller and RF amplifier, provides users with standard DVD decoding (with options to support MPEG-4 ASP decoding, HDMI transmitter and Class D power bridges). It incorporates advanced video enhancement features such as an HDTV encoder that can display JPEG pictures at full HD resolution, as well as video up-scaling and de-interlacing to display video at HD resolution.
Tim Windsor, general manager, Nero Digital, said, “Nero Digital allows audio and video content to be easily managed without losing any of its original quality. This is especially apparent when dealing with high definition video and surround sound audio. The state-of-the-art Phoenix ES8380/ES8381 HD enhanced DVD processor is the perfect home for this technology.”
