Sonic Solutions (Nasdaq: SNIC) and Microsoft Corp. today announced that they are developing new production tools that will allow film studios and production facilities to create high-definition DVD titles in Microsoft® Windows Media® 9 Series. DVD titles created using Windows Media Video 9 (WMV HD), a component of the Windows Media 9 Series platform, provide dramatically superior image quality at data rates comparable to those for standard-definition DVD video content. WMV HD titles can be played on the latest-generation Windows XP-based PCs, including the popular new Windows® XP Media Center Edition, which integrates into the living room to provide a top-notch home entertainment and online computing experience. Sonic plans to ship its WMV HD authoring system in May 2004.

Hey, who told the Times' Circuits section about something interesting? You made us miss a incisive column they were going to write about why spam is bad how some people like the iPod. Instead, we got this profile of Japanese broadcaster NHK's work to develop Ultra High Definition Video (UHDV), the 7,680 by 4,320 pixel resolution television standard that aims to hit 'as good as really there' levels of visual fidelity (you know, the kind of quality so good that it makes people puke from watching it. The awesome kind, I'm saying.) Take that massive resolution, add a 60 frame per second refresh and 22 channels of surround sound ("10 speakers at ear level, 9 above and 3 below, with another 2 for low frequency effects") and you end up with video files that end up taking up 3.5 terabytes of storage for just 18 minutes of footage. Don't expect UHDV anytime soon, of course. NHK started developing HDTV, which is just now taking hold, in the 1960s. (Thanks, Jeffrey!)

I have been an increasingly reluctant user of Microsoft FrontPage for many years, so I was looking forward to testing Nvu, a fully Open Source program that is designed to effectively replace FrontPage. When Nvu turned loose its beta release for public consumption in February, I instantly downloaded copies of both the Linux and Windows versions. The verdict? Nvu holds promise, especially in its user interface, but FrontPage won't be going away soon.

Arriving even earlier than we had originally predicted, the first DVD recorder that will support the playback and recording of Windows Media 9 video files is here. Using Windows Media 9 means that over six hours of DVD quality video can be squeezed onto one disc, and the DiVA 489, which is being built by Malata/Wanlida (yeah, we'd never heard of them either) but will be sold under the Polaroid brand name in the US, can also play Windows Media content that's streamed or downloaded over the Internet.

Software lets Macs handle Windows Media
Video 9 12/22/2004 01:48 AM
It took a relatively small California company called Telestream to bridge the video creation incompatibilities of two PC giants. Apple's Macintosh computers maintain a stronghold in video editing, thanks to their art department-friendliness, a long legacy of use in Avid and competitors' video equipment and Apple's own professional software, Final Cut Pro. While Apple has carved out a video production niche, Microsoft has been trying to control video distribution through its Windows Media Video 9, which is currently popular for Web video, but also has the potential to be used for portable entertainment, DVDs, and even cable-TV distribution. Microsoft recently donated WMV9's codec, called VC-1, to the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE), hoping to also make it a TV industry standard.

Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 09/03/2004 08:18 AM
The most striking change to Microsoft Windows Media Player 10, the much-awaited upgrade to the player/jukebox that ships on most new PCs, is its dramatic cosmetic overhaul. Windows Media Player (WMP) no longer feels like a freebie utility thrown in with the OS (think Notepad), but is an application you'll actually want to use. By giving you easy access to all of your multimedia files (music, photos, and video) and helping you accomplish the tasks you're likely to want to do with them, WMP 10 at least equals — and in our estimation surpasses — the current leader in the field, MusicMatch Jukebox 9.
