Corel VideoStudio Ultimate X10 Video Editing Suite for PC (Old Version)

Based upon some of the other reviews, I was very hesitant to order this product. When I installed it, I only enabled the main software and made sure not to install any freeware of service packs. Whenever I open the software it does ask if I want to upgrade to the newest version - but that's it. No issues at all with malware/spyware etc. As far as the functionality and user friendliness, it's great. I have never used a photo/video editor, and within 30 minutes I cobbled together a quick video complete with inserted photos, videos, and soundtrack. I'm sure that the software is capable of far more spectacular results, but I am very happy with it. Later, when I had some more time to devote, I was able to create a 25 minute video complete with an introduction page, about 60 photos and a dozen videos - and five songs to makeup the soundtrack. I am running the software on a laptop with an Intel i5 processor and 8 GB RAM. I have had no issues with lockups. When I composed the 25 minute video, it took about a half hour to complete the process - so I ate dinner. All in all, very happy and have recommended to friends.

I've only installed Corel VideoStudio Ultimate X10, but let me tell you, that installation was crazy difficult. I'm one of the 25% of Americans that have a slow internet connection. I think sometimes corporations forget about those of us with the skinny pipeline. During the installation process this program insisted on downloading about half a gigabyte of something. I had to cancel the install the first time around, and then I restarted it that night so that we'd have SOME internet access that day. Good grief.The last version I owned was Corel Video Studio Ultimate X7. One huge bug in the program throughout the versions was it could not complete a job if it was in the neighborhood of 90 minutes or more of video. I hope this version can handle that...

I ordered this last week. Spent almost 3 hours trying to load it onto my computer. It takes a long time to load, so I left the room to go do other things, came back a half hour later, and the computer appeared to be frozen. It has no visual display to tell you where it is in the setup process, i.e. "5 more minutes", "1 hour to go", "25% completed", etc., etc., so you have no idea where you are in the setup process. My computer, which I bought brand new about 3 years ago, seemed to go to sleep a few times. I rebooted my computer several times. I had to uninstall and attempt to reinstall it. Finally thought I got it installed, and it appears not to work without an internet connection. Kept getting error messages when not connected to the internet, about having to shut down the program, but when connected to the internet, seemed to work fine. Right now, just waiting a week or two to calm down before I try to reinstall this program again. If I can't get it to work soon, will be chunking this. Was not interested in loading my personal videos on the internet to edit them, I just wanted something I could do simple video editing with on my computer, and this program so far has been a HUGE disappointment. If my experience changes, I will be updating this review. Perhaps I had a bad day? If not, I would say I do not recommend this product. Very difficult to install. Does not seem to work without internet connection.

is the first time I use this program I have always used nero but wanted something new and I liked what I look at this video editor and I bought it, the first thing was that I made a video and although I bought double layer DVD 8.5 the video of 1 hour and 18 minutes came out very bad quality so I decided to jump to blu-ray and buy a blu-ray burner and discs too, well I turned on the computer I opened the program and I started to record the video to a blu ray and ready 2 hours and 1/2 maybe. When I took the disc and I put it to see it only leaves the menu and does not play the video, I do not know what happened so I changed the settings and I played video and then the menu and set 2 copies so I turned on the blu ray disc recorder and ready when the disc came out I did not work nor the second, they are 4 blu ray I recorded and not one to worked the video I pass it to my computer to save it and it is not recorded well if it stops and does not work is paralisa.no I recommend it and even talk about the installation cost me a lot too since you ask to download many things, ay oara to be able to record blu ray you have to ñagar 8 dollars to segun to unlock the program so that you can record in blu ray, I spent money in the program, in blu ray, in dvd-dl, and in the recorder of blu ray, I am not at all happy with this program desoues of having worked 8 hours in the video I spent it like 10 hours tried to record a single video in blu ray, it has not worked anything well this.I want my money back.

I assume this is great for the price. It does everything I want.Some of the areas of opportunity:The install takes a very long timeThe playback in the software is extremely choppy. When you export it, it works fine.One of the main reasons I wanted Corel was to create some awesome bottom thirds. However I am unable to install Boris FX, Inc. I have done everything I could to get it installed but I can't get it to show in the filter section.I was hoping for more samples or templates to useSome of the things I like:Very easy to use and learn how to useEasy to create overlaysAllows the use of multiple different types of video files
