If software were astronomy, you'd have little difficulty identifying the brightest star on the Taiwanese horizon. In fact, at an exhibition like CeBIT, in and among a Milky Way of local hardware manufacturers you hardly need a telescope to find it either.
Ulead is, after all, a company that has within a decade been recognized and respected internationally for original, user friendly and affordable graphics software.
No where more so than in Germany, where discerning users with a bias toward quality and performance are among Ulead's staunchest followers.
So its not surprising that FAST, one of Germany's top video hardware makers, will supply the AV and DV drivers for two of Ulead's starring products -- the newly released MediaStudio Pro 6.0 and a new version of its top-selling 3D tilting software, Cool 3D Version 3.
"This is great news for Ulead, for FAST and most of all for our large following of Ulead graphics software users here in Germany" said Ulead International Marketing Director Dwight Jurling.
"We've always had a big and loyal following in Europe," he said, "and our products, have always flown well in the jetstream of the major graphics card markers, FAST and MIRO."
At the same time, Ulead announced the release of its Media Studio Pro 6.0, the latest version of its professional video editor.
The new version incorporates the widest support in the industry for the "in technologies," such as DV IEEE-1394 (iLink/Firewire) MPEG-2 and MP3 audio.
But importantly, Jurling said, it offered low-cost hardware manufacturers the most advanced editing capabilities in a mature editing environment.
In the past, he explained, editing of complex video formats such as DV (digital video) and MPEG-2 had been almost the exclusive domain of expensive hardware and dedicated systems.
But MediaStudio Pro 6.0 brings a new democracy to the graphics industry by offering professional and hobbyist alike one of the most complete and price friendly products supporting more formats than any other video editing software on the market today.
"A revolutionary development" said Jurling, "made possible through integrating Ligos Corp-oration's GoMotion technology."
For audio file support, Media-Studio Pro 6.0 can now also capture popular MP3 audio files that can be used for background music or sound effects, allowing for more flexibility in editing and the download of a wide selection of music from the Web.
COOL 3D Version 3.0, with its new features and functionality, is also raising eyebrows among afficianados in the growing community of Video and Web designing professionals.
Supporting both AVI and QuickTime formats with enhanced save features for video output, the new COOL 3D hots up Web animation design process together with GIF animation optimization features to shrink file sizes for faster Web viewing.
Add to all this exclusive special effects like Explosion, Fire, Bend and Twist -- long COOL 3D hallmarks -- Ulead has a product set to keep a pole position in video and Internet software stakes for a long time to come.
When Lika Megreladze was a child, life in her native western Georgian region of Guria revolved around tea. Her mother worked for decades as a scientist at the Soviet Union’s Institute of Tea and Subtropical Crops in the village of Anaseuli, Georgia, perfecting cultivation methods for a Georgian tea industry that supplied the bulk of the vast communist state’s brews. “When I was a child, this was only my mum’s workplace. Only later I realized that it was something big,” she said. Now, the institute lies abandoned. Yellowed papers are strewn around its decaying corridors, and a statue of Soviet founder Vladimir Lenin
UNIFYING OPPOSITION: Numerous companies have registered complaints over the potential levies, bringing together rival automakers in voicing their reservations US President Donald Trump is readying plans for industry-specific tariffs to kick in alongside his country-by-country duties in two weeks, ramping up his push to reshape the US’ standing in the global trading system by penalizing purchases from abroad. Administration officials could release details of Trump’s planned 50 percent duty on copper in the days before they are set to take effect on Friday next week, a person familiar with the matter said. That is the same date Trump’s “reciprocal” levies on products from more than 100 nations are slated to begin. Trump on Tuesday said that he is likely to impose tariffs
HELPING HAND: Approving the sale of H20s could give China the edge it needs to capture market share and become the global standard, a US representative said The US President Donald Trump administration’s decision allowing Nvidia Corp to resume shipments of its H20 artificial intelligence (AI) chips to China risks bolstering Beijing’s military capabilities and expanding its capacity to compete with the US, the head of the US House Select Committee on Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party said. “The H20, which is a cost-effective and powerful AI inference chip, far surpasses China’s indigenous capability and would therefore provide a substantial increase to China’s AI development,” committee chairman John Moolenaar, a Michigan Republican, said on Friday in a letter to US Secretary of
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co’s (TSMC, 台積電) market value closed above US$1 trillion for the first time in Taipei last week, with a raised sales forecast driven by robust artificial intelligence (AI) demand. TSMC saw its Taiwanese shares climb to a record high on Friday, a near 50 percent rise from an April low. That has made it the first Asian stock worth more than US$1 trillion, since PetroChina Co (中國石油天然氣) briefly reached the milestone in 2007. As investors turned calm after their aggressive buying on Friday, amid optimism over the chipmaker’s business outlook, TSMC lost 0.43 percent to close at NT$1,150
