VideoStudio lets you create movies in three easy steps.

Imagine the Movies You'll Make
Widely regarded for its powerful features and unmatched ease of use, VideoStudio now includes the industry's first AVCHD editing solution, enhanced DV-to-DVD Wizard and Movie Wizard features, more title/subtitle and overlay tools and a host of quick-fix solutions for common video problems, including automatic color/tone correction.

The Movie Wizard is ideal for users new to video editing. You can select from several attractive themes and let auto-editing create a professional opening sequence for you, and in three easy steps, you'll have a complete movie ready to share with the world. Features that set VideoStudio 11 apart from the competition include the new MPEG Optimizer. An industry first, the MPEG Optimizer helps users choose the best MPEG settings for rendering video when combining clips in multiple formats. It analyzes the bitrates of all clips on the timeline and suggests encoding settings to ensure the least re-rendering for the best quality and speed. Users can also now "safely pause" rendering at any time when they need to do something that requires more PC resources.

VideoStudio 11 supports all popular formats, including standard and high-definition video, images and audio. Video can be captured from virtually any video source: DV camcorders (including HDV and AVCHD camcorders), hard drive camcorders (MOD file format), USB camcorder devices, mobile phones, set-top DVD recorders, digital and analog TV tuners, VCRs and Webcams. With the convenient DV-to-DVD Wizard, you will have the fastest and easiest way to convert DV from your camcorder to a DVD. VideoStudio 11 includes complete DVD authoring functionality, which will let you create both DVDs and HD-DVDs with multimedia menus in just a few clicks. Just hook up your camcorder and choose the clips you want. In just two steps you have a finished DVD complete with menus, titles, transitions and music. If you're a more advanced user, you have the option of customizing and creating powerful and exciting DVD menus that include Corel's SmartScene technology, bringing true interactivity to DVD menus.

Professional Filtering and Authoring Features
Whether your using clips taken from the Web or from old VHS tapes, VideStudio has you covered. Already equipped with an anti-shake filter and enhance lighting filter, the software now offers several new filtering features that set a new standard in quality. Based on new image correction algorithms, the new auto color and tone feature auto-corrects the color and tone of videos recorded in low light or less-than-perfect white balance conditions. A DeBlock Filter has been added to clean up videos with blocky compression artifacts, such as those downloaded from the Web, while a new DeSnow Filter reduces noise found in video digitized from analog sources, such as VHS tapes.

When it's time to create menus and prepare your movie for distribution, VideoStudio will give you all the professional tools you need. You can create fully-interactive DVD motion menus and submenus, including 16:9 widescreen. You can also customize menus by resizing and positioning buttons, and apply menu transitions that segue smoothly between menus and DVD content. The software's menu filters will also allow you to create movement even on static menus, for professional-looking DVDs.

VideoStudio also has a full array of output templates for creating video for iPod, PSP, Zune, Smartphones, PDAs and other portable devices. With the included InterVideo WinDVD Player, you can also share your standard and high-definition video, (AVCHD, MPEG-2 HD/WMV-HD), directly from your computer, giving you the flexibility you need to review and share your movies.

2.0 out of 5 stars Buggy upgrade; this is JUNK!, June 3, 2007

By 

BigMutt (Mexico City) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ulead VideoStudio 11 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

Editing features are pretty cool, improved from last versions.
But capture is so buggy when it comes to capturing video originally shot in analog mode (like all your VHS tapes) just won't work with this software. You have to capture with another program, like CapWiz or Win DV, then edit with Video Studio.

I've been using VS since version 5 and usually had no capture problems before version 11. both in XP and Vista.
So unless you want to be a beta tester for Ulead (now owned by Corel) and PAY them for the privilege, forget this version for a while. Try Roxio EasyMedia Creator or Nero.

1.0 out of 5 stars Install Locks Up with Fatal Error, June 19, 2007

By 

Busy Dad (Meade, KS United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ulead VideoStudio 11 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

I purchased VS 11 after using version 9 because I had found some decent ratings for this upgrade on the internet and I was already familiar with VideoStudio and how it works. After receiving the application CD ROM I attempted to install the software, but after what appeared to be a successful install the setup installation froze during the final stages and then aborted with a Fatal Error message. Ater 3 unsuccesful attempts and one attempt using Ulead tech support suggestions I finally gave up.

Ulead tech support was unnable to come up with any fixes so that I could successfully install their product. Very frustrating.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dont waste your money, July 8, 2008

By 

Cin "Cin" (MI) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ulead VideoStudio 11 [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM)

I had version 9 and it worked fine. I never did like the fact it took 8 hours to convert and burn the first DVD. It would not burn to a disk at all once I installed Vista so I upgraded to version 11 and it still comes up with an error when trying to covert and burn the first disk. It only works to make small mpg files for web sharing. Do Not Waste Your Money on this Product. I bought Cyberlink Power Director and it works much better and only takes an half an hour to convert and burn the first DVD.
