Powerproducer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

CyberLink PowerProducer is a commercial Optical disc authoring and burning software working on Microsoft Windows. PowerProducer 5 Ultra enables users to create both BDs and DVDs.[1] Version 5 of the software was released on March 11 2008 and includes new features and broader format support (notably AVCHD and BD-RE video files, and burning Blu-ray Discs). Although the application is more suited for authoring than editing per se, it does include some editing tools.[2]
