Yes Video Chooses Apollo Expert MPEG-2 Encoder
From DV Studio Technologies
Yorba Linda,
California, 24th September 2001—DV Studio Technologies, LLC (DVST)
announced today that its Apollo Expert MPEG-2 encoder/decoder card has been
selected by Yes Video of San Jose, California to power their automated DVD
Creation Systems.
With backing from Kodak and
others, Yes Video is a pioneer in the development of automated DVD Creation
Systems. Customers send in their videotape and receive this content back in
the form of a DVD with scene indexing and a custom DVD package.
According to Dr. Subutai
Ahmad, Yes Video’s VP of Engineering, “Our requirements for performance,
robustness, and cost led us to explore MPEG encoder/decoders from various
companies. In the end, the choice was simple…Apollo Expert from DV Studio
Technologies provided the solution we needed.”
Though less visible due to
its heavily OEM-oriented business model, DVST’s proven technology is used by
many other entities throughout the world.
According to Stephen
Godfrey, DV Studio Technologies’ Vice President of Marketing & Sales, “Yes
Video’s engineers needed a proven industrial-grade encoder/decoder capable of
handling MEPG-2, MPEG-1, and VideoCD applications. It had to provide
professional image quality—and still fit within their B.O.M. cost structure.
We’re delighted that Apollo Expert met both their performance and cost
objectives.”
DV Studio Technologies
provides MPEG compression and DVD creation solutions as an OEM supplier and
also under its own Apollo trademark.
