By supporting the DivX format, the DMN-3 family of DVD recorder processors gives consumers a convenient way to play, create and share highly-compressed, high-quality video content.
This can all be done in the comfort of the living room without requiring the cost or complexity of a PC.
'LSI continues to offer our customers new and innovative solutions that provide richer experiences - whether it be recording, viewing or sharing video content', said Jim Fox, director of DVD recorder marketing, Consumer Products Group, LSI Logic.
'The ability of the DoMiNo DVD recorder processors to support DivX encoding and decoding, in addition to many other audio and video formats, highlights the power and flexibility of the DoMiNo architecture'.
Designed to address both worldwide and unique geographic requirements, each member of the DMN-3 DVD recorder processor family is highly integrated with advanced features.
For example, the DMN-8603 is the ideal solution for worldwide, analogue single-drive DVD recorders, whereas the DMN-8633 is ideal for ATSC digital markets and the DMN-8623 for single-drive DVB DVD recorders, typically for the European market.
'The DivX Certified Recorder programme will enable consumers to record more high-quality video content on DVD-R devices without sacrificing visual quality', said Kevin Hell, CXO, Partners and Licensing at DivX.
