Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Pinnacle holds a prestigious name as a major video editing software developer, but their innovative Studio 9 contains some bugs that put one through pure HELL! I have produced over 7 successful DVDs without many problems, except a few occasional crashes here and there. However the tides can turn dramatically after just one restart, I was just working on my most prized piece of edited video (footage from Hurricane Charley) near 16 hrs of time invested into making it all perfect when disaster struck. What happened after I saved the project and restarted my PC? The .stu the studio file extension corrupts itself and causes the timeline to NOT OPEN. Although I could start fresh again from the beginning (suggested by Pinnacle tech support) and piece together the entire puzzle again, how would I know which problem caused this fatal corruption. According to pinnacle tech support "The problem could have been caused by thousand different things" (i.e. anti-spyware software, anti-virus software, a corrupted file extension, or most likely a bug in the software). Now of course Pinnacle would never take the blame or admit this program is "buggy" (as one can see from the majority of the other reviews). If you do wish to purchase this program, I HIGHLY recommend backing up large/important projects onto a DVD or additional hard drive just in case you run into a the catastrophe I did. In conclusion, as a safe consumer you should look to purchase a different video editing software program altogether that does not run as strangely as Studio operates (creating a gateway extension file [.stu] that acts as the timeline that accesses separate files spread throughout your hard drive that you designate). Although the innovative idea of ease, style, and intuitive editing options may immediately captivate it's user... be weary of its evil bugs that could put you in a situation where you will regret even wasting your time with such a infernal of piece of poorly programmed software.
