Rating:  - Doesn't do what it claimsI bought this because it is claimed in the specs that it will handle HD with no loss of quality. But this is not true. It does not have 'smart rendering' so insists on re rendering AVCHD even if the output is set to match the input. The result is a quality drop and very extended rendering times compared to products that do 'smart render'. Another astonishing failing is that despite claiming Dolby 5.1 support, it is incapable of passing 5.1 from cameras that record in this to the edited result! ...

Ridden with bugs - at first it seems great, until you actually need to do anything such as change the speed of a clip or render to AVI. Mine will not do either, even with the latest patch applied.

Windows update did not find any new drivers for the graphics card - but on Nvidia's website there was a new driver. Pinnacle posted a patch in October ...

For me it does the job. Though while I gain more skills I'll move on to Sony Vegas or Final Cut. Some effects are useless because they look so crappy, but some of the color correction and other picture manipulation work really well. Rating: - Unstable platformI bought Pinnacle Ultimate 12 because I had used Pinnacle before - in the 1990's - and had some success with it, albeit, then, the edition I was using was fraught with stability problems. Later, I realised most of these were to do with lack of computer power. Recalling this, I opted for a brand new computer with 4 g RAM, high speed Hz processor with 420 g HD, and presumed the newer version would have improved, that this level of power would make the thing work. Oh dear. Ultimate 12 loads with a wobble to ... Read More |
