Deluxe Media, a division of Deluxe Entertainment Services Group Inc, announced the launch of their UltraViolet Common File Format (CFF) production services. These services are designed to provide studios, broadcasters and portals with full-featured UltraViolet CFF files for consumer distribution.

Building on Deluxe's DL3 Asset & Workflow Management System, which currently supports a range of product lines including digital distribution, Blu-ray and DVD, the new UltraViolet CFF file creation services enable content owners to repurpose and format global assets into the new UltraViolet CFF file format. Deluxe's DL3 Asset & Workflow Management System is designed to quickly and cost-effectively create CFF files for multiple territories worldwide.

"Leveraging our R&D capabilities, we've created tools and custom workflows specifically for the UltraViolet CFF file format. With this new capability, we're now creating UltraViolet CFF files optimized for the consumer's viewing experience while balancing file size to minimize the cost of distribution," said Jeff McDermott, Vice President of New Technology, Deluxe Media.

McDermott further added, "Supported by the same production infrastructure currently used to process over 28,000 digital media files per month for 834 different target specifications, our managed workflow and toolsets will enable content owners to cost effectively process their libraries for the UltraViolet CFF platform."
