Beware! Beware! Beware! Beware! Beware! Beware! Beware! Beware! I can't say it enough.
This is the first review I have ever posted, because I need to warn everyone not to buy this.
Only buy this product if you want crashes, frustration, to reinstall your entire system, poor customer support, and to waste a lot of time, lose a lot of work.
I have spent over a week of work time trying to get this to work, as a solo business owner this has cost me a lot, in both time and money, trying to produce a DVD for students.
Pinnacle should not be allowed to sell this product, and they should be embarressed to do so.
It won't even uninstall properly, after running all the uninstall programs, (inculding one you have to download) it leaves 43.5MB of files and data on your pc. Hah! try and delete those if you can! |  | Reviewed on 2008-05-29      Pinnacle Studios Very User Friendly I am by no means a computer expert. I recently received a digital video camera and couldn't figure out how to download the videos to my computer and make a movie with the software packaged with the camera. I purchased Pinnacle Studios and am making movies like a pro. Very user friendly, simple to operate and loaded with options for when I become more advanced. |  | Reviewed on 2008-01-15      Buggy software, unresponsive support - stay away I've used Pinnacle Studio since version 1.06 and it seems that with each new release software quality deteriorates more and more. Studio has severe problems capturing analog video (from Pinnacle's own capture card no less) and corrupts portions of video during editing / rendering. Support is horrible to say the least - after an email exchange where all suggestions were taken from FAQ I was told that my issue is redirected to "level 2 support" which apparently stands for "black hole". I've never heard back and further emails went unanswered.
The bottom line - spend your money elsewhere. |  | Reviewed on 2008-01-14      save your money I installed this software and as soon as I launched it my computer crashed.
I uninstalled it,removed all traces from the registry and reinstalled it
and it still crashes.
I have Intel QX6700 quad core processor EVGA 8800gts640 and 3mb of ram,more than whats needed for this software.
Not Only that but Vista sucks too. |  | Reviewed on 2008-01-14      Studio 11 Plus This program works great with Vista. I really have likes every Pinnacle product I've tried. However, I am disappointed that there is no timing display for editing like Windows Movie Maker has. This feature is invaluable when getting your timing in sync with background music. But Studio is a much superior product in every other way. |  |
