CyberLink Launches SoftDMA 2 – The Newest DLNA Certified Media Player for the Home Network

Taipei, Taiwan - CyberLink Corp. (5203.TW) is proud to announce the release of SoftDMA 2, the latest media player for the digital home. SoftDMA 2 is DLNA v1.5 certified, enabling solutions for the streaming and sharing of digital content across a user’s home network. By automatically locating media servers connected to the home network, SoftDMA 2 makes it easy to access and share video, photos, music and recorded TV programs between networked digital devices.

“SoftDMA shapes a home cloud solution by enabling the convenience to stream and play all types of media content from any DLNA-compliant device over a wireless home network,” said Alice H.
