Sorenson Squeezes Features Into Compression Suite
January 13, 2005
Salt Lake City, UT - Sorenson Media announced the latest update to its lineup of video encoding and compression applications for digital video professionals, Sorenson Squeeze 4.1.
It adds AAC Plus Audio, an audio compression feature providing the same audio fidelity as the AAC standard while compressing audio file sizes to half its original, uncompressed size.
Additionally, users of the Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 Compression Suite for the Macintosh will be able to purchase a new Telestream Flip4Mac plug-in allowing video encoding of Windows Media 9 format directly on the Mac, the company describes. Also included in the release is a new optional task dialog - a feature allowing users to send video files to multiple applications and locations on a single computer, over a network, to an FTP site, or to VitalStream on-demand video streaming services.
The Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 product line includes the Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 Compression Suite, Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 for Macromedia Flash MX, and Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 for MPEG-4 - all available in Windows and Macintosh versions.
Included in each Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 product is the new optional task dialog. The optional task dialog is used to quickly send video files to other applications on a single computer, over a network, or to an FTP site where the file is ready to be viewed or further refined.
Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 upgrades are scheduled to be available by the end of the first calendar quarter of 2005 for free to current users of Sorenson Squeeze 4.0 products. The Windows Media plug-in for the Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 Compression Suite (Macintosh) will be available for US $179.00.
