every market segment: high-end performance driven to low-end cost driven DVD players. Mediamatics' solutions include single and multiple tray disk systems, and innovative iDVD players among others.

NDV8601.jpgRapid Product Development

The Mediamatics family's development environment includes pin-out compatibility within all member-products, along with fully compatible, comprehensive software development kits. The result is faster time-to-market, lower overall costs and higher product performance. That's not just another claim. It's a fact.

The Platform

The Mediamatics product family provides next-generation features and cost-effective system integration for Universal DVD players/recorders and Internet-connected players/recorders. An industry standard RISC processor architecture allows system developers to combine the ease of C-based applications coding with flexible system extensions unavailable on other platforms. The processor may be equally applied to DVD-Video and DVD-Audio playback, DVD-recordable solutions, hard disk drive-based solutions and Internet appliance (iDVD) products.

Audio Processing

The Mediamatics product family provides unequalled audio processing quality and flexibility. It provides wide support for all common disk-based
formats and for many Internet-based formats. A custom DSP provides a powerful solution for the latest compute-intensive audio algorithms. Support for DVD-Video, Video CD and CD formats has been retained from previous generation devices. Additionally, the devices now provide on-chip decoding support for DVD-Audio, DTS, MPEG2 multi-channel, Dolbyn Prologic, HDCD and MP3. Full karaoke processing and royalty-free 3D stereo surround are also provided. Flexible audio structure allows audio data to originate from disk-based media, external digital audio streams or via the Internet. Full 5.1 channel output with simultaneous 2-channel down-mix and IEC958/1937 output is standard for the family.
