New SANYO Xacti VPC-HD1000 to include Nero ShowTime for smooth playback of
HD video clips
Karlsbad, Germany (September 27, 2007) – Nero,
leaders in digital media technology, today announced inclusion of Nero ShowTime
with the world’s smallest and lightest Full HD Movie Camera. The new SANYO Xacti
VPC-HD1000 films and records in Full HD (1920x1080), bundled with Nero ShowTime
offers smooth playback of the Full HD video clips recorded along with many
options for customization.
"SANYO has built its reputation on becoming an indispensable
element in the lives of people all over the world," says Charly Lippoth, Chief
Technology Officer at Nero. "Nero solutions complement the SANYO philosophy of
facilitating the digital lifestyle, and integration of Nero ShowTime with the
SANYO Xacti VPC-HD1000 delivers on that doctrine by offering users the highest
playback quality available for maximum enjoyment of their personal Full HD
movies."
"In designing this new video camera, we were not just aiming
for a ‘microscopic’ size and ergonomic design, but for the highest level of
technology with the smallest footprint. The Xacti VPC-HD1000 is built with a new
high speed image processing engine to handle the processing of Full HD high
capacity data," explained Hiroshi Fuji, Marketing Manager SANYO Electric Co.,
Ltd. "In evaluating a full range of playback solutions to complement this new
camera, we found that Nero had the strongest performance and could provide our
camcorder users with the best options available, including playback on their
personal computers."
Nero ShowTime plays
HD video for outstanding High Definition picture, cinema-quality sound, and
unparalleled interactivity. It provides an intuitive user interface and easily
connects to digital home equipment.
The SANYO Xacti VPC-HD1000 allows users to experience digital
entertainment at the touch of a button. Previously, the large data size of Full
HD movies required special hardware for file saving and playback. The new “Xacti
Library” allows for simple file saving and playback of movie and picture data by
connecting the USB cable from the docking station to an external hard disk
drive. Users can easily sort through images, select movies they wish to share,
and even organize slide shows.
Nero ShowTime will be available with the SANYO Xacti VPC-HD1000
in Japan by the end of September and worldwide by mid-October.
