Taipei, Taiwan----June 5, 2003----CyberLink Corp., a leading developer of digital video software and e-learning solutions, announced today the release of PowerProducer 2.0, an easy-to-use software for producing Movies and Photos on DVDs and CDs. Targeted at the consumer level, PowerProducer features an intuitive user interface and delivers fast video rendering process with the patented SVRT (Smart Video Rendering Technology) to speed up the rendering process so that only the edited parts of the video are rendered instead of the whole video length.

- | Disk Defragmentation: a helpful utility to collect empty spaces on a DVD disk to optimize disk space available on a DVD. |
