Europe, United Kingdom

NXP Software Adds Support for DTS Audio to a Range of LifeVibes™
Products, Including QuickPlayer and CineXPlayer, Enabling Superior Audio
On the Go

20/03/2012 — LONDON — (BUSINESS WIRE)

DTS,
Inc.
(Nasdaq:DTSI), a leader in high-definition audio, today
announced a partnership with leading mobile multimedia software vendor
NXP Software to integrate a suite of DTS audio technologies in its
QuickPlayer and CineXPlayer smart media player solutions.

In a fragmented media world, it is difficult to deploy differentiated
new media services to a broad range of connected devices. DTS addresses
these challenges by providing a scalable audio solution facilitating
delivery of high quality audio from stereo to multi-channel for digital
content. DTS’ collaboration with NXP Software enables studios, service
providers and network operators to rapidly deploy HD video services with
the highest quality audio to a wide range of Android and iOS smart
phones and tablets.

“We are pleased to add DTS as a key partner, as the company’s technology
enables us to bring the same great audio that currently serves over 80%
of the Blu-Ray market to mobile phones and tablets,” said Cees Geel,
managing director, NXP Software. “We believe that a high quality audio
experience makes these devices much more valuable to consumers and
allows them to enjoy and share a highly engaging and immersive
entertainment experience.”

DTS and NXP Software agree that sound matters and that superior audio
enhances the overall consumer entertainment experience. Consumers are no
longer willing to accept sub-par audio from their mobile devices. As
proof, a recent research report from YouGov* shows that seven out of 10
adults between the ages of 18 and 24 name “Top Quality Sound” as
important to them.

Brian Towne, executive vice president and chief operating officer at
DTS, Inc. added, “DTS and NXP Software are key players in changing the
way people consume and interact with high quality entertainment content.
By adding DTS audio into LifeVibes smart player solutions such as
CineXPlayer and QuickPlayer, we make it easier for studios, service
providers and network operators to deploy superior audio regardless of
the platform.”
