THIS PROGRAM IS A TOTAL MESS AND WILL NOT RUN! TWO HOUR INSTALL AND THEN IT WILL NOT LOAD.
DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY ON THIS! Just search online for reviews of this "program" and you will see....IT DOES NOT WORK for 99% OF PEOPLE!!!
Pretty Good Software - Fast Learning Curve October 22, 2009 Angie's Husband (Pacific Northwest) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
What I think sets this software apart from others, is how easy it is to use. Just spending a few minutes watching their FREE online tutorials and you are up and running in no time at all. Really, the video tutorials are quite nicely done, and sure beat having to read pages of a help manual.
I'll also point out that their "stabilize" effect to remove camera share is AMAZING (on paper). However, when it comes to delivering a final product, it really falls short. The video ends up highly degraded, and is not tolerable for mastering to a DVD. And if there is motion in addition to camera shake, then just forget about it! Maybe this effect is ok for a youTube video, but most definitely not a 480i DVD.
The menu functionality is a bit gimped in this version. Meaning, you cannot have a title page, which leads into different sub menus (only one menu page is supported in the Studio HD version).
I will also say that I've had a few issues with the thing crashing when trying to apply some of the audio effects, but not sure if that is the software's fault or not. Other than that, the editing experience has been pretty good.
Lastly, I will say that the burning process is PAINFUL. I mean like really really bad. Get ready to make a bunch of DVD coasters while you hunt for solutions to your problem. The best advice I got was to use the software to create an .ISO file (image), and then use a different program (like the one that came with your computer) to burn that .ISO image to DVD.
