CyberLink MediaEspresso 6 is the successor to CyberLink MediaShow Espresso 5.5. With its further optimized CPU/GPU-acceleration, MediaEspresso is an even faster way to convert not only your video but also your music and image files between a wide range of popular formats.
Now you can easily playback and display your favourite movies, songs and photos not just on your mobile phone, iPad, PSP, Xbox, or Youtube and Facebook channels but also on the newly launched iPhone 4. Compile, convert and enjoy images and songs on any of your computing devices and enhance your videos with CyberLink’s built-in TrueTheater Technology.
New and Improved Features
- Ultra Fast Media Conversion – With support from the Intel Core i-Series processor family, ATI Stream & NVIDIA CUDA, MediaEspresso’s Batch-Conversion function enables multiple files to be transcoded simultaneously.
- Smart Detect Technology – MediaEspresso 6 automatically detects the type of portable device connected to the PC and selects the best multimedia profile to begin the conversion without the need for user’s intervention.
- Direct Sync to Portable Devices – Video, audio and image files can be transferred in a few easy steps to mobile phones including those from Acer, BlackBerry, HTC, Samsung, LG, Nokia, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and Palm, as well as Sony Walkman and PSP devices.
- Enhanced Video Quality – CyberLink TrueTheater Denoise and Lighting enables the enhancement of video quality through optical noise filters and automatic brightness adjustment.
- Video, Music and Image File Conversion – Convert not only videos to popular formats such as AVI, MPEG, MKV, H.264/AVC, and FLV at the click of a button, but also images such as JPEG and PNG and music files like WMA, MP3 and M4A.
- Online Sharing – Conversion to video formats used by popular social networking websites and a direct upload feature means posting videos to Facebook and YouTube has never been easier.
For our testing today we are converting a 3.3GB 720p MKV file (2h:12mins) to Apple Mp4 format for playback on a portable device. This is a common procedure for many people and will give a good indication of system power. We are using the newest version which has been optimised for Sandybridge processors.
Hardware acceleration is enabled for the testing today.
A final time of 10 minutes and 59 seconds is fantastic, again highlighting the power of the Intel Core i7 3630QM processor.
Well this is rather daring from PC Specialist. never heard of them before, but thats a heck of a move. I know a lot of people who would love this, even with a bit of extra heat.
Only issue I could see would be a long term fan dust clogging issue, and this machine would overheat very soon. I suppose many laptops are like that however so nothing that big a deal.
Thats a great little system, id probably opt for a slightly lesser CPU though to keep down temps.
I really like this too, great price. Shame they dont ship outside UK.
@Mannacua, while they don’t personally ship outside the UK I have heard of people getting the confirmation from PCS that it is ready (and arranging for them to hold onto it) and then sending in their own couriers to pick it up and ship it out as self pickup is an option!
So far heard great things about this and having owned a Viper III from PCS am sorely considering getting this as a travelling companion!
Any way to adjust the fan speed on this? I have the same one and my fans dont show up on any software.
