Customer Reviews:
 Worked flawlessly for me, 2008-11-13
After downloading trial versions of Cyberlink, Corel and Sony Vegas I decided to go with Pinnacle, in spite of the years of bad press they've recieved on previous versions. You can't download a trial version of Pinnacle Studio 12, but you can see video's on YouTube. I could tell from the videos, that even though this may not be as powerful as the other products, it would be very, very easy to use, and allow me to finally EDIT my family videos from 1984 to the present.
With so much history to catch up on, I really didn't care that I could only have two video tracks instead of 6 or more. I mainly wanted to drag & drop, edit out all the boring stuff, make a nice front end menu with a music soundtrack in addition to the actual video soundtrack, and do it pretty darn fast.
This absolutely met all of my expectations without one glitch.
I got the 'Plus' rather than the 'Ultimate' version. After watching the videos for the three additional features you get with Ultimate, I decided I wouldn't use them for just my family stuff. This has plenty of 'title' animations and video enhancement extras to add quick pizazz.
You can get lost in all the Web reviews and recommendations, especially since for every 'video editor software package' that is 'highly' recommended, you can easily find customers who hate it and had a bad experience. There's no way around that in this day of internet info overload, but don't let it immobilize you. This worked for me, but know that video editing, by nature, simply takes alot of computing power, and that alone, will hang up a good many folks who will then blame the software. (I have a intel quad core with 8GB of ram and 1.5TB of space, running Vista Home Premium 64) I'm sure that helps, but aside from the hardware, I really, really appreciated the simple and straightforward Pinnacle 12 interface. I read no instructions, but did occaisionally check the video tutorial here and there to move forward. Good luck
