Sony DADC Announces Production Technology Initiative for Blu-ray Disc Dual Layer
HANAU, Germany, February 16 -- Sony DADC today announced that it will start an initiative for a production technology alliance for Blu-ray Disc dual layer. Detailed information will be presented at the European MEDIA-TECH Showcase & Conference 2007 in Barcelona, Spain, at the Congress Center of Hotel Rey Juan Carlos I.
The presentation will start at March 6, 2007, at 5.30 pm in Room "Sala F"
and will introduce the partners of the coming production technology alliance.
Sony DADC will also present its latest Blu-ray roadshow.
Due to the huge capacity of up to 50GB, the Blu-ray Disc dual layer format allows for more than just a movie to be stored in the absolute best high-definition quality. Taking content owners beyond anything ever experienced, the format also offers room for additional extras. There is no need to pack additional discs to store these bonus materials, thereby eliminating costs and simplifying the end user's entertainment experience.
Depending on the encoding method, there is room for more than five hours of the highest high-definition quality video.
