FMV-DESKPOWER C90EW/C PC Features Industry’s Leading Software for Burning Recorded TV Programs and Home Videos to DVD

Marin County, California (December 4, 2003) – Sonic Solutions (NASDAQ: SNIC) announced today that both Sonic MyDVD 5 and Sonic PrimeTime, the industry’s leading applications for DVD creation, are now shipping in Japan as integrated components of Fujitsu Limited’s FMV-DESKPOWER C90EW/C Microsoft® Windows® XP Media Center Edition PC. The combination of Sonic PrimeTime and Sonic MyDVD allows Fujitsu’s customers to easily and quickly burn DVDs of their recorded television programs using the Media Center Edition remote control, and then customize them with powerful features such as integrated video editing, motion-menu backgrounds with animated buttons, chapter points, photo slideshows and more.

“Our decision to partner with Sonic Solutions was an easy one,” said Masahiko Shimada, Manager of the Platform Engineering Department, Personal Systems Business Group at Fujitsu Limited. “Sonic is the world leader in DVD creation, and this combination of products is the perfect complement to our FMV-DESKPOWER C90EW/C PC. With Sonic PrimeTime, our Media Center users can now quickly and easily record their favorite programs to DVD and then add customized effects with comprehensive editing and special design features using Sonic MyDVD.”

The Fujitsu FMV-DESKPOWER C90EW/C Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition PC is designed as a complete home entertainment system that allows users to watch and record television, record and play music, and view and edit photos from the comfort of their sofas. With Sonic PrimeTime, users can take advantage of the PC’s “ten foot” user interface with large menus and integrated remote control to browse and select their favorite TV shows and record them to DVDs that can be played back on the vast majority of standard set-top and PC-based DVD players. Sonic MyDVD takes the DVD creation process a step further by allowing users to edit their recorded programs to remove commercials, add titles or special effects, as well as customize their DVDs to give them the pizzazz of Hollywood-style DVDs. In addition, the recorded discs include OpenDVD^® technology, which allows users to re-edit content at any time using Sonic MyDVD, Sonic PrimeTime, or other OpenDVD-enabled applications.

“We are extremely pleased to be working with Fujitsu to bring DVD-burning capabilities to FMVDESKPOWER C90EW/C PC users who want to save their recorded TV shows, home movies, photos and data to DVD," said Koki Terui, Senior Vice-president of Pacific Rim Operations at Sonic Solutions. "The Fujitsu products with Sonic PrimeTime and Sonic MyDVD bring the latest advances in DVD technology to consumers who want to create Hollywood-quality DVDs at home."

About Sonic PrimeTime
Sonic PrimeTime is the first PC software application that works seamlessly with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition to burn TV shows and other video content to DVD. Like Windows XP Media Center, PrimeTime employs a ‘ten foot’ user interface with large menus. The application takes advantage of the Media Center PC’s remote control so that a user can browse and select their favorite shows and record them to DVDs that can be played back on standard set-top DVD players and PCs. DVDs recorded by Sonic PrimeTime also include OpenDVD technology so that they can be easily reedited at a later time.

About Sonic MyDVD
Sonic MyDVD is the leading PC application for consumer DVD creation. With its ability to record analog and digital video (DV) in real-time into MPEG-2 for DVD, Sonic MyDVD is the fastest and easiest way to share treasured video memories with friends and family on DVD discs.

Sonic MyDVD makes it easy to burn high-quality DVDs with integrated video editing, motion-video menus, animated buttons, and DVD slideshows with transitions and soundtracks. Sonic MyDVD also features optimized Direct-to-DVD™ recording which allows users to record their content directly to DVD from a video source connected to the computer’s video input in just a few clicks. Sonic MyDVD is also OpenDVD-compliant, enabling previously burned DVDs to be opened, re-edited, updated with new video and photo content, and re-burned to DVD and CD recordable/re-writable media. This enables an entirely new generation of DVD and CD applications, such as video diaries, compilations of family events, up-tothe- minute, customized sales presentations, and more.
