TrueTheater effects are a group of video enhancement technologies from
CyberLink that help to provide the best quality video possible during the playback
of DVD titles.
Note:
TrueTheater effects are disabled during the playback of Blu-ray Disc titles.
TrueTheater effects are also disabled when hardware acceleration is enabled.
•
Auto adjustment : select this option to apply all TrueTheater effects
automatically and have CyberLink PowerDVD dynamically adjust (turn on or
off) TrueTheater
HD and Motion according to the CPU usage and mobile
power settings (notebook users only).
•
TrueTheater HD : select this option to up scale the original video to a higher
resolution version, which is sharper and artifact-free. TrueTheater HD is
capable of boosting 480p video to 1080p. Use the slider to adjust the
sharpness to the best output that suits your configuration.
•
TrueTheater Lighting (CyberLink Eagle Vision 2) : is a video enhancement
technology developed by CyberLink that detects video content and
dynamically adjusts the brightness/contrast/saturation ratios so that you do
not need to change the color settings if the movie you are watching contains
scenes that are overly dark or too bright. Use the level slider to adjust the
TrueTheater Lighting effect the desired amount.
•
TrueTheater Motion: select this option to enable frame rate upsampling, from
24 fps up to 60 fps, to make panning scenes, particularly in action movies, play
more smoothly. The Smoother option will double the frame rate of the original
movie content, while Smoothest can improve the frame rate of DVD content to
60 or 72 fps, depending on the output frame rate of your display.
TrueTheater effect display mode
The TrueTheater effect display mode option is available when you enable
TrueTheater effects and lets you select how video displays in the CyberLink
PowerDVD window during playback.
You can select from the following display modes:
•
: select to view the applied TrueTheater effects on the entire video in
normal mode.
•
: select to compare the applied TrueTheater effects in split mode, with the
left half of the video played back with the original video, while the right half
has the video enhancements applied.
