1.0 out of 5 stars Do not be fooled, November 29, 2009

mom of three (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Muvee Reveal Home Movies and Slideshow Win CD DVD Case (CD-ROM)

I not one to write a review, but this was so bad, I had to.

I purchased this as an upgrade using my HP discounted price (I had the trial version on my HP laptop when I bought it). I read the reviews but didn't listen. I spent many late evenings and many hours attempting to make a DVD of family pictures, video, and music only to have the program "freeze." After many headaches and heartaches, I learned if I didn't save my work in progress every few minutes, I lost everything as it "froze" my entire laptop. I repeatedly had to restart my laptop. After a few days of finally finishing the movie, I attempted to save the movie in HD format as the products claims...only for it to "freeze" again.

I also went out a purchased a stack of blank DVD disks and holders in an effort to make DVD movies. However, this also would "freeze." After another three days of trying and the program failing to make the DVD it promised, I attempted another product option and save the movie to my I-Tunes library. This was a last effort. This too failed.

During this entire time I sent approximately 5 emails requesting help and my problems to their customer service and by the last email, I requested a refund. They responded and took away my online access. I will be checking and making sure my credit card has been refunded.

I do not wish this frustration on anyone and hope you rethink this purchase. Good luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding! Muvee Reveal 8, December 14, 2009

This review is for Muvee Reveal version 8. (Product shown here is Muvee Reveal.) Buy Version 8.

I just read some of these reviews and felt I had to put in my experience. I just received Muvee Reveal version 8 software as a gift and I am amazed. I wanted to make a slide show of scanned photos for a Christmas party. Muvee Reveal v. 8 to the rescue!

Step 1: Load images. Simple enough. (You can load video but am only reviewing usage of program for .jpg images.)

Step 2: Choose a style for your presentation. Several to choose--from laid back to uptempo. I chose standard disolve for the transitions. You can preview each picture and further enhance the color, direction of panning, (go in, go out, side to side, slow or fast...or just set the ) set length of time on each picture (up to 10 seconds), add captions if desired, and more.

Step 3: Add music of choosing. You can also set the start and end points of each song. Crossfading is available too if you want continuous mix of music or have each track end and next one start like a c.d. You can further personalize the overall presentation. I added a picture to the front page of the dvd once inserted and added a title and border. Muvee Reveal will sync to the music beats if desired, and display images to length of music added which makes it simple to have your last picture fade to black on the last note of the song. (I would like to see the ability to have Muvee Reveal let us select the "auto end"--in the "personalize section" and change some of the display times of certain pictures and still have Muvee adjust for the difference and still end on the last note.) You can adjust the energy and pace of each production as well. Further enhancements to color and saturation may also be made. You may also select the program to repeat music if images run out or fade music out when last image is revealed. You may also force the program to a certain "duration" if you'd like.

The finished production was so outstanding I can't wait to show my work to family at Christmas. (A perfect gift I might add!) I was so excited that I made another disc of images from a Christmas party over the weekend. Added few up-tempo Christmas songs and Muvee Reveal did the rest. I chose "Kinetic" style which flips images, cuts them, disolves, moves side to side, twists, mirrors and more. This style also added flashes of subtle light to highlight portions of the pictures. It was perfect! The finsihed production was so entertaining we watched it four times!

Glitches: Like any software, you may experience a "freeze" of the program. Muvee Reveal has a Recover feature that allows you to fully recapture all data input when you relaunch the program. That feature was a lifsaver as I had to restart the program twice. Suggestions: Would enjoy being able to choose my own color from a palate for font...even textured fonts and add images to fonts.

You can upload directly to Facebook, Youtube and others. I suggest to simply SAVE the project to your hard drive in the highest quality format (.avi) and then upload to youtube yourself. My experience with direct loading was in .mp4 quality and it was not suitable for my quality production. Burn directly to DVD and hand to your friends to play in their home dvd players.

Computer requirements: You'll need to have enough ram and power to allow the program to work best for you. People having problems may not have adequate system resources.

Want to make a beautiful high definition photo/video mash up before your kid graduates from college? Yes!

Want to make friends, family movies that your significant other won't hide from? Yes!

Want people to know those great YouTube/Facebook videos are yours? Yes!

The new muvee Reveal 8 -- in my opinion is currently THE best 3-click, Windows-based HD video production software PERIOD!

It wouldn't be half bad if it'd actually burn a dvd like it's supposed to. I spent HOURS making a movie as a gift only to have the thing freeze every single time I went to burn it onto a dvd. What a waste. I wouldn't wish this software on my enemy.
