NewSoft Press Release: NewSoft Simplifies DVD, SVCD and VCD Photo Slideshow Creation with the Launch of Presto! PhotoDisc
Easy-to-Use Workflow and Themed Templates Turn Photos into Professional-Looking Slideshows in Three Quick Steps
LAS VEGAS, NV (CES, Booth 9017) - January 5, 2005 NewSoft Inc., a leading provider of innovative business and consumer software, introduced their new digital photo slideshow suite, Presto! PhotoDisc today from Booth #9017 at the 2005 International CES. A truly user-friendly solution, the software’s ready-to-use templates and step-by-step workflow walk users from photo collection to dynamic slideshow in three quick steps. PhotoDisc users can burn their slideshows to DVD, SVCD or VCD, for anytime viewing from the comfort of the family room couch, using a standard home DVD player and TV. Complete with DVD motion menus, animated titles, transition effects, sound bites and music, Presto! PhotoDisc makes it easy for users of all experience levels to show their memories to family and friends with confidence.
“As the popularity of digital cameras continues to grow, so does the need to quickly, easily and creatively manage those images,” said James Li, President of NewSoft Technology. “Presto! PhotoDisc takes the work out of building a slideshow, enabling our customers to fully enjoy the instant gratification and versatility they expected when they switched from traditional film to digital cameras.”
Users can choose one of the included still or motion backgrounds, or select one of their own photos for a truly one-of-a-kind slideshow. After picking the photos for the slideshow project, Presto! PhotoDisc automatically creates a ready-to-burn slideshow, complete with transitions, frames and a Hollywood-style DVD menu. To make the slideshow even more entertaining, users can add customized text and motion effects including pan and zoom capability, attach their own music files, import sound effects or even record an audio commentary for each slide up to 30 seconds long. For the final touch, Presto! PhotoDisc users (PC users only) can further customize their digital slideshows by creating and printing a one-of-a-kind label for their DVD, SVCD or VCD, using the integrated CD labeling software.
NewSoft’s Presto! PhotoDisc supports a broad range of standard media formats including: CD-R/RW, DVD-/+R, DVD-/+RW, DVD-RAM and the new double layer DVD+R format.
Availability
Compatible with both Macintosh 10.2.6 G4 computer and Windows 98SE/Me/2000 and XP operating systems, Electronic Software Download (ESD) versions of NewSoft’s Presto! PhotoDisc will be available the end of October through http://www.newsoftinc.com with an Estimated Street Price (ESP) of just $49.95.
