Here are some customer reviews of
Pinnacle Studio Plus 10.0 - Video Editing
: From reading the list of features in this video editing software, one would be led to believe that this is a truly exceptional program for the money... and it would be if it actually worked!
There are so many bugs and problems with crashing that this program is practically unusable. Just doing a simple operation like trimming a video clip down causes the program to crash (happened 6 times in 30 minutes to me). Heck, you can't even add background music without all the audio picking up a nasty popping/clicking noise (that's not from clipping and is not in any of the source files).
I recently tried to customize the settings of the output files and was met with a buffer overrun error and now I can't output ANY files because when I go to the "Make Movie" section, I ALWAYS get that message now.
On top of all that, a good amount of the features in this software have to be unlocked by PAYING MORE MONEY to Pinnacle to use them. They don't even have the core software working right and they expect us to shell out more money for more stuff that probably doesn't work right? WRONG!
Save your money or buy another program. Shame on Pinnacle for releasing such a worthless piece of software.
Do not! I repeat do not buy studio v10! It is absolutely the worst product ever! I would have saved more time if i had drawn my slideshow by hand. Unfortunately I am not as lucky as some of you who had been able to make at least one cd. I cant make jack!! Lets all go to Ripoffreport.com and make our voices heard! And as for a class action suit? Where do i sign up????
Don't waste your money. I've been using Pinnacle Studio since version 6 and have loved using it to edit video's up until version 9.43 Plus. Version 10 was a pain to install, and when it was finally installed, it would report an error before I could do anything. Why they decided to rewrite the program based of their slow professional liquid edition is beyond me. This version is being uninstalled. I'm going to go back to using version 9.43 Plus.
If you intend on buying version 9 Plus, be aware that you have to dish out additional money before you can unlock some cool features.
Here are a list of locked features:
MPEG 2 Encoding/Decoding
MP3 Encoder/Decoder
Dolby 5.1 Professional Encoding
Dolby 2 Channel Encoding
MPEG-4 Encoder/Decoder
Dolby 5.1 Consumer Encoding
RTFx Basic Limited
HFX Editor (Plus)
HFX Plus
HFX Creator (PRO/MEGA)
HFX PRO
RTFx Plus
RTFx Mega effects
Version 9.43 Plus is awesome once you have everything unlocked. Version 10 is garbage.
My computer
2.4 GHz Celeron
768 MB RAM
60 GB for Windows
250 GB for Video Editing
Software is horrible, I have been using studio for about 5 years and the new version 10 is awful
Never have I had so much trouble with a software package before. While I may not have the swiftest PC on the block, I do have a pretty good Pentium PC with 512 RAM. Apparently not near enough for Studio Plus V10. The program takes five minutes to "load", continually crashes and is totally unusable. Be warned. Unless you have a super Craig and can take continual breakdowns, avoid this software. More bugs than a July swamp party in the Everglades!
