Novatek TV SoCs to Add DTS Play-Fi Support, Says Xperi

Novatek Microelectronics will add DTS Play-Fi support to its line of SoCs targeting the TV market, said DTS parent Xperi Tuesday. DTS Play-Fi adds wireless audio features to TVs, including whole-home TV audio streaming, multiroom music playback from top music services, app-based headphone streaming and immersive surround, said Xperi. DTS Play-Fi works over industry-standard Wi-Fi, so no additional hardware is required in the product’s design, “and manufacturers can add advanced wireless capabilities across a wide range of price points within their product portfolio,” it said.
