SRS Labs and DivX Team to Deliver New SRS HD Sound Feature for DivX Players

SRS Labs , a company providing surround sound, audio, and voice technologies, announced that it is partnering with digital media company, DivX, Inc. to develop the SRS WOW HD DivX Edition plug-in for the DivX player and DivX Web Player.

SRS Labs and DivX are partnering in this combined offering to advance the quality and performance of DivX video with sound technology that matches the outstanding video quality of the DivX players.

"DivX has built a solid reputation for providing a solution that allows consumers to enjoy high-quality multimedia across a wide range of devices, while SRS prides itself on creating audio solutions that provide exceptional audio quality that is both natural and immersive," said Allen H. Gharapetian, Vice President of Marketing for SRS Labs. "We are excited to be working with DivX to provide their users with an enriched audio experience through the ingenuity of SRS WOW HD DivX Edition."

SRS WOW HD DivX Edition restores a significantly more natural-sounding audio experience to the DivX players for heavily compressed files and optimizes content to maximize the sound potential of headphones and built-in speaker configurations. The result is an immersive 3D audio experience with improved bass response, greater high-frequency clarity and an elevated sound stage.

"We're always looking for new ways to enhance our customers' multimedia experience and add more value for our consumer electronics partners while continuing to advance the quality and performance of DivX (.avi/.divx) and DivX Plus HD (.mkv) videos," said Guto Araujo, Vice President and General Manager, Software & Services at DivX, Inc. "The addition of the SRS WOW HD DivX Edition plug-in for the DivX Player and DivX Web Player allows us to offer a more immersive and natural sound experience for our users to enjoy the quality of DivX videos with great audio."

The SRS WOW HD DivX Edition software is expected to be available on DivX's Web site before the end of 2009.
