How do I use the TrueTheater audio enhancements for my audio media playback in CyberLink PowerDVD 24?

CyberLink PowerDVD 24 (Ultra edition or the 365 subscription version) now supports the TrueTheater Noise Reduction and TrueTheater Speech Isolation features1 that use AI technology to reduce noise2 and isolate speech in audio2 during playback3. The original TrueTheater Audio enhancement feature, which is primarily used for enhancing the volume of the dialogue audio and adding the surround sound effect during movie playback, has been renamed as TrueTheater Audio Booster.  

To use the TrueTheater audio enhancement features, do this:

  1. Launch PowerDVD.
  2. Click on the settings button, and then select TrueTheater Settings to open the TrueTheater configuration panel.
  3. Select/Enable the TrueTheater Audio Booster4 feature in the Audio Enhancement section, or the TrueTheater Audio Restoration option, and then select the Noise Reduction or the Speech Isolation feature. 
  4. Adjust the enhancement level of each audio feature, if required.
  5. Close the configuration panel to save the TrueTheater settings. You can also adjust the settings at any time during media playback.

Note

  1. A CPU that supports AVX2 technology is required to operate the AI-assisted Noise Reduction and Speech Isolation features.
  2. The noise reduction and speech isolation results are provided through AI processing, but they are not 100% accurate. The audio features work best if the audio you play does not contain complicated audio or track mixing.
  3. For the Noise Reduction and Speech Isolation features, due to the AI audio processing limitation, you can only enable one of them singularly at a time. These two audio enhancement features are not supported for video discs, disk images (ISO), and disc folder playback.
  4. The TrueTheater Audio Booster only takes effect on the playback of a video that contains audio. It is not supported for audio files or audio disc playback.
