Nero Digital™ is the world’s leading MPEG-4 solution. With outstanding video and audio quality, Nero Digital™ is at the centre of Nero’s strategy for content creation, delivery, and protection. Now featuring cutting edge AVC/H.264 video encoding, and HE-AAC audio, future Nero applications will be able to record High Definition video content with surround sound on DVD. The addition of VCPS to Nero Digital™ provides the required level of security against unauthorized re-distribution.
Nero Digital™ is already today finding strong acceptance in the hardware sector with several vendors supporting the format and many more player/recorder announcements coming up at CES 2005. Nero Digital™ with VCPS is expected to be introduced in devices from Q3/2005 onwards.
Interesting. First heard about (VCPS) back sometime of August last year although it was called vidi.

How do you add VCPS capability to your product?
Adding VCPS capability to DVD+R/+RW equipment and discs is straightforward. Manufacturers of blank DVD+R and DVD+RW media simply need to place VCPS-related information in the ADIP (Address-in-Pregroove) of their discs, which can be done without investing in new manufacturing equipment and without increasing manufacturing cost. Manufacturers of optical drives can add VCPS capability in firmware. Manufacturers of DVD+RW recorders and DVD players need to add an implementation of the publicly available AES cipher in their MPEG decoder ICs.
