Based around the company's brand-new video-editing program, Studio Plus v.9, the updated software adds Picture-in-Picture (PiP) capabilities, pan and zoom controls for still images, and chroma key effects. It also adds a second timeline and useful audio options, including Dolby Digital Stereo encoding, which further help to make it one of the best value-for-money video-editing packages. Pinnacle also bundles a 5x6ft. green sheet backdrop for creating chroma key effects, which is an added bonus, and further adds a range of useful software applications, including Steinberg's WaveLab Lite for editing audio, Corel's PhotoBook for editing and sharing photos, as well as Pinnacle's Instant CD/DVD for burning, copying and backing up data to CDs and DVDs (Studio Plus v.9 can also be purchased on its own for £59.99 ex. VAT). With this latest release, Pinnacle has extended its lead with easy-to-use video-editing software that continues to set the standard in consumer video technology."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/studioplus9_1.jpg" /><br /><br />I used to be a huge fan of Pinnacle Studio, but even with the latest patches on version 9, it feels slow and is a big buggy. :?
