Ok. Last time i wrote something about editing video and creating DVDs I got a little bit ahead of myself.
Not that anything was wrong with the hardware at all. In fact i should probably be using this opportunity to state that the capture card is really some piece of engineering. But, the software that came along with it is a whole other story all together.
Please, if your reading this and considering purchasing Pinnacle Studio 10 for any upcoming projects. Dont!
It's gonna leave you like an ex-girlfriend: broke, torn and ready to hit anything with a pulse.
I will spare you the details of my despair with the above piece of editing mayhem, and instead point you in the direction of a more professional tool. TMPGEnc DVD Author.
The TMPG suite of products is not suited for the beginner, since it requires a bit more than 1-click actions. Still, the mildly tech-savvy person should be able to figure out the workings of this tool quite fast.
Another great feature of this software is, that it will render your final files to burn in less than half the time Studio 10 needs.
