 Software fairly easy to use, but can take hours of processing. June 8, 2008

This is my first time with any camcorder software. This software is fairly easy to use.
I have a HG10 Camcorder which uses AVCHD format, this can take hours to process onto a DVD. The DVD version is not as good as the original version.
There is a Corel Technical Web site for problems and also a forum which deals with problems & other queries etc.
It is easy to insert the video clips onto the programme, then they may require editing, labeling the clips as well as adding music and or voice for the final version. There are other features such as gamma, brightness etc. together with filters for sound/music
I edited about 60 clips, which lasted about 80 minutes, added titles and some music, these were then rendered and sound was also saved etc. The process had to be completed by a further processing, before being saved onto a DVD.
The whole process from start to end took me at least 8-10 hours, using a dual core processor E8400, and 2Gig Ram, XP Home Edition. If you have a quad core then it may be a little quicker. If you are prepared to be patient then you can get good results.
There are also other features, which allows copying of video onto a DVD in less time.
Make sure your computer specification is adequate if possessing AVCHD format.
 Minor Problems but Great Package March 27, 2008

Having read the reviews regarding crashing I was a little worried about this software, but, it works like a dream. I've always used Pinnacle Studio in the past but have been dissapointed by the speeds at which it could handle AVCHD. Ulead is miles better and the end rendering is a good deal quicker too. Ive output to file, DVD and BD so far without any issues on my main PC. I did have a crash on my other PC which is identical except its graphics card. Main PC runs a pair of Nvidia 8600GTS' wheras the other PC has an older ATI card in it. Seems to be a video memory related issue and ive ordered a replacement for that card already. Great Software!

I have been a contented user of Ulead Video Studio since version 7 but upgrading to VS 11.5 Plus has been a disaster to such an extent I have downgraded back to 10.5 which also has a few problems. What is particularly frustrating is the appalling support provided by Corel, where even a simple email gets rejected. I run this software on a 2GB memory system with a high powered Dual Core processor + over 300GB of file store. I'm not sure how much MS Vista has to play in the way the software behaves but by trial an error I have worked out you need a fresh update of Microsoft Direct X which does boost performance but doesn't fix the bugs. Video capture is very flakey. You need to babysit the system stopping occasionally so it can write clips into the program; having spend 5 hours downloading a 1 hour tape, I managed to figure out the workaround. Next, editing, great fun the software just hangs, no messages, just a little round MS circle going round and round, I never got to create a DVD; just gave up after three days. Also, beware downloading software you have to insure it after 30 days (its extra) my advice is buy a pukka copy from Amazon but down load this program first.
Good Fun, but the Quality... neeerrrrr March 15, 2008

When I ordered this litte did I know that only MPEG video files worked. So, I convert ALLLLL my files only to find out that the quality has now gone completly down the toilet. It's a pixelated and everything.
Crashing is no problem January 10, 2008

I have been editing video using Pinnacle software for a fair few years now, but recently decided it was time to upgrade my video editing software. As Pinnacle does not have native support for Dolby Digital Sound I thought I would try and find a package that did as I was fed up with the time it took converting audio to a format supported by Pinnacle.
While looking around I discovered VideoStudio, but not liking change (or spending money) I decided to download the trial software from Corel's web site. I am so glad I did as I no longer have to spend hours converting audio. My editing speed has increased 10 time over. Okay, the programme has crashed on me, but from experience with Pinnacle I thought I'd re-write the unedited film through VideoStudio (choose to export the video mpeg 'same as first video clip' from the share/create video file option after dragging it to your editing timeline window) to a new file name. After doing that you should be able to edit the re-written film with no further problems.
Just for information I use a laptop with 64Mb on board graphics, 512Mb Ram, a Pentium4 2.66 Ghz processor, WinXP Home SP2 and a 500Gb USB2 Hard Disk (for storage of original, and edited film). Not the meatiest machine, but it does the job fine.
I have now bought the full package here, and am eagerly awaiting it's arrival (although I did use supersaver post - as I said I don't like spending money).
