Summary: Worse than a temperamental racehorse!
Comment: This is stunning software and I have wowed my family and friends with true movies that don't bore them. But this is only WHEN it works! It bombs out, needs patches all over its body and unless you disable everything and install software on separate drive, it winds down to nothing. Studio also lies - they recommend Althlon processor, but anyone who has worked with this says it needs Intel and nothing else! Thanks. Its favourite trick is to edit, save, burn dvd movies, and then refuse to make movie once a fresh edit has been completed. I've tried 25 times with three different movies. No go! Bought Ver 10 - thought this will sort it out. Loaded it - would not recognise previously made movies (came up in strange colours) and then told me to fetch a patch! Imagine buying a new car and then being phoned by the garage to say come in because the car needs to be patched! These software designers need to learn some manners!

Summary: Waste of Money!!!
Comment: I own this software and it is worse than Windows Movie Maker. They give you a bunch of lame samples to use and then spam you to upgrade to use the ones you thought you were getting. I was very mad when this first happened because I felt ripped off, and I still do. I have made a couple movies using Windows Movie Maker and it was much better than this $100 POS software. It freezes the computer quite often and it is hard to navigate the various tools you need to make a good video.

Summary: I had to add to the millions of bad reviews
Comment: I have spent hours and hours away from my family trying to make DVDs of edited home movies. I have only been able to burn cd's and not dvd's. Rendering takes forever! Don't waste your time on this program. The live service on line is even worse than the program itself. If this is what video editing is about - I will go back to photos.

Summary: Great Video Editing Solution!
Comment: I feel sorry for all the guys/girls who can't make this program work. For me, this is the best video editing package (soft & hard) and served me amazingly well to produce a couple of professional DVDs. Unbelievably easy to use yet powerful enough to do all the editing work and more.

Summary: I do not reccommend Pinnacle Studio 9
Comment: I have had nothing but problems. Most recently I am having a very difficult time "rendering movie" and in 1 year I have only burned 1 DVD successfully out of 20. I am constantly throwing the DVDs away. The recent error message states "Burning failed during the burning process". I DO NOT RECCOMMEND NERO!
