Boris and Looks are very powerful tools for video effects, titling etc. and are a great added value for video hobbyists. If you already have Studio 11 Ultimate, the plugins (Vitascene, Stage Tools, SoundSoap) are compatible with Studio 12.

I just bought the Upgrade to Studio 11 Ultimate (dutch version) a month ago and now a hear that version 12 is coming. I feel a bit ripped-off. If I had know that, I would have waited.

Dear Sirs,

At the moment I am using Pinnacle version 9.4 plus. In this version 6 different projects are under construction.

When I start using Version 12 can this version read the files in the 9.4 version.
2e Question. I am using Windows XP on my computer. Is this version 12 working under Windows XP.
3rd Question. When will version 12 will be available in Holland and where can I see a complete demonstration of the various possibilities of this program.
4th Question. When does Declic Video start a Dutch version of this Internetsite.
Thansk for your quick answers.
John.

Hello John,
1/ As always, we strongly encourage people to FINISH their project before upgrading. You can just render the actual project (as an AVI file for example), and finish it with S12 (making the final menu and burning with S12).
2/ S12 is working under XP without any problem. It is also fully compatible with Vista, but this does not mean that S12 is not compatible with XP, hopefully.
3/ I do not have any idea, EKinnaer will get in touch with you for additionnal details.
4/ Sorry, I will probably never be able to publish a dutch version of the website, excepted if the demand is very high. But currently, I have lots of difficulty to maintain all articles in both french and english. I need more people to help me. If there is someone who is ready to translate all articles from english/french to dutch, no problem for me to setup such a website. But for sure, nobody is very interested in doing translation all day long. That's not so funny.

Etienne, Rob, please read again my reply. I do not understand why Pinnacle is involved. I replied to John whose question was: "When does Declic Video start a Dutch version of this Internetsite". The reply was: "{...} I will probably never be able to publish a dutch version of the website, excepted if the demand is very high {...} If there is someone who is ready to translate all articles from english/french to dutch, no problem for me to setup such a website{...}".
So if I am submerged with hundreds of emails/comments in this website asking for a dutch version AND someone is ready to make translation, no problem. On my side, everything is ready, I just need a translator who will do full time translation... Anybody ready for this ?

DEar DV FX.

Thanks for your answer to my 4 questions.

As question 3 I asked you to let me know where and when I can see a demo of Studio 12 in Holland. As an answer you wrote to me that Mr. Etienne Kinnaer would contact me about this subject. However I am sorry to tell you that up to now Mr. Etienne Kinnaer did not give any reaction to this question. I have no idea who this MR E. Kinnaer is but anyway he did not answer my question. Maybe you can ask him once again??

With regard to my question about the interest for a dutch version of your site and your reaction to this question I can inform you that most users of Pinnacle or Magix or Ulead Video editing programs can read english, but especially when complicated problems have to be solved, it is always much easier when data are available in your own "language".

Anyway I case you seriously are thinking of a Dutch page or part of the english pages completed with a translation in dutch you can contact me for some of the work in this field.

I am now waiting for the answer of Mr. Etienne Kinnaer.

Thanks for your kind reaction.

John Meijer

Avid Delivers New Version of Pinnacle Studio Software Family
September 10th, 2009

Avid® today announced a major update to its family of Pinnacle Studio™ video editing solutions.  Widely regarded as the industry’s leading application for home video editing*, Pinnacle Studio software now offers an even broader array of HD capabilities with a new simplified user interface that makes it easier to manage content and an unified capture/import utility for the latest formats and camcorders. Other new features include:

  • A stop-motion capture for animated and fast-motion effects.
  • New content and enhancements for Pinnacle Montage.
  • Dynamic Motion Titler tool that includes a number of new templates.
  • A new stabilizer effect – leveraging the same technology used in Avid’s professional editing products to fix shaky camera shots.

The new Pinnacle Studio meets the needs of a wide range of consumers, from novices to video enthusiasts and semi-professionals.  The family of products includes Pinnacle Studio HD, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection, which offer a complete HDV & AVCHD workflow and allows consumers to export movies to Flash, QuickTime, PS3, Nintendo Wii, Xbox, Apple iPod and more. Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Ultimate Collection also offer Blu-ray authoring with motion menus.

“This version of Studio absolutely rocks – it’s probably the best advance since the move to digital.  New built-in features help to make it very easy for newcomers and hobbyists to create Hollywood-like movies and to turn their family and holiday shoots into something really special,” said Pinnacle Studio Beta tester Mike Shaw, an international award-winning amateur movie maker. Shaw also highlighted the new user interface improvements, which make it easier for editors to find their way around, and praised the enhancements of Pinnacle Montage themes, as well as the new import features that make it easier to select the source of the movies consumers wish to import.

Alec Marshall, Director of Segment Marketing for Creative Enthusiasts at Avid, said, “A growing number of both video and point-and-shoot cameras now capture high-definition video, creating a burgeoning demand for editing tools that allow for high-quality export to the web, upload to YouTube, and creation of HD files for sharing. The latest version of Pinnacle Studio makes HD editing a breeze, empowering consumers to easily grab photos and videos from video cameras, still digital cameras or camera phones and easily bring that content to life using music, Pinnacle Montage Themes, animations and effects. Once finished, they can share their masterpieces with friends and family–or the world–with direct high-quality upload to YouTube, or by simply burning a DVD.”

Customers who purchase Pinnacle Studio Ultimate software receive two bonus professional plug-ins: ToonIt and Knoll Light factory effects from video masters Red Giant. Those who purchase Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection will receive the most complete solution, including a green sheet for Chroma key effects and six highly acclaimed professional plug-ins from Red Giant:

  • Shine ultra-fast light ray effects
  • ToonIt turns video into cartoon style animation
  • Knoll Light factory creates lens flares, sunsets & more
  • Magic Bullet Looks generates advanced video styles
  • 3D stroke creates glowing lines, swirling shapes, and 3D camera effects
  • Particular smoke, explosion, and abstract effects

 

Pricing & Availability
The price of Pinnacle Studio HD, Pinnacle Studio Ultimate and Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection remains the same as previous version: US$49.99, $99.99 and $129.99, respectively.  Pinnacle Studio is compatible with Windows Vista SP2 (Both 32-bit & 64-bit), Windows XP SP3 & Windows 7.

The new Pinnacle Studio family of products will be available at the Pinnacle e-store and at e-tail and retail beginning in mid-September. Existing customers currently using Pinnacle Studio versions 9,10, 11 and 12 are eligible for  upgrade via Pinnacle’s website for $69.99 (upgrade to Pinnacle Studio Ultimate) and $89.99 (upgrade to Pinnacle Studio Ultimate Collection).
