1 out of 5 stars Do not buy this!!   July 12, 2007
The reviews are accurate. I used it for the first time this morning and it has crashed with blue screen EVERY time. Biggest waste of money I have spent so far on video editing. Believe the reviews!!!


1 out of 5 stars Poor quality output.   June 2, 2007

Video output at 100% quality is pixellated. The product mangles the raw footage when it brings it in. I have a Sony HD camcorder FX1 and it takes remarkable video. It might as well be a $500.00 el cheapo because of what Pinnacle does to it upon rendering.


1 out of 5 stars Would rate it lower than 1 if I could.   May 16, 2007

WORST... SOFTWARE... EVER! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME LIKE MYSELF AND SO MANY OTHER POOR SOULS DID! Read the reviews, cnet also. Go to the Pinnacle Support User Forum Site (pinnaclesys dot com) and read the countless people who can't get it to work.

This software just doesn't work, end of story. You will be more upset about your time wasted than your money, buy anything but this. Render error, render error, render error... you will have nightmares about crashes and render errors, no wait, they are real. The only person who should buy this is the smart lawyer who is going to start the class action lawsuit against Pinnacle for selling us something that is not even beta quality, it is pure crapware, try to make anything longer than 20 minutes with transitions and it does not work, period.



1 out of 5 stars Like the Plague   May 3, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I wanted PC videocapture to record shows and VHS conversions, and I owned the Pinnaclesys PCI card and the USB (silver blue) hardware; I used Studio Plus 9.4 and 10.5.

I finally gave up on the USB box and Studo 10.5 on my P4 and went back to the previous 9.4, the only version that would halfway work; I used the PCI card with the red breakout box. Half the time the sound and video would be off, but I managed to re-edit the timelines. I spent 2 years with this product (Studio 9.4) and it worked, but 10.5 was buggy as all heck and unusable even with all the patches.

In short while the Pinnacle hardware PCI card was ok, the software was a complete disaster, and other programs like Premiere Elements wouldn't read the MPeg files created by Pinnacle or else the sound was a mile off.

I finally last month bought a Hauppauge USB Personal Video Recorder and tossed all my Pinnaclesys stuff in the dumpster (sorry, landfill!) I didn't want to even sell it for peanuts because that would be like selling a cheap car that would injure someone. With Ulead Studio plus, the Hauppauge is a dream come true comparatively.

My advice is, shun any Pinnaclesys product like the plague, unless you enjoy beating yourself up with inferior products. They keep releasing new versions that don't work or are worse than the previous versions.



5 out of 5 stars Don't give up hope   April 30, 2007

Like many other users who suffered through Studio 9 and the patches, I was looking for another program. I endured countless crashes and freezes in the past while spending hours of my life editing. I was about to give up, when I bought Studio 10.5 last month. After updating it to 10.7 online I have had no problems at all. From simple to huge builds, the program hasn't crashed once and burns every time. I was looking at spending $1000's to get a new computer, but the Studio 10.5 saved me the trouble . I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes their Studio 9 and doesn't want to learn a new product.
