Pinnacle Studio 11

Pinnacle have release a new version of Studio, I've been playing with this for about a week and it does seem to have fixed the major problems previous versions had. Although not the usual AV a few of us create with our photos, below is a couple of music videos I created for an online competition. They have lost a LOT of quality hosted on YouTube, but it looks good at DVD quality on a widescreen tv.

If your still in dinosaur mode (dial-up speed), you may be waiting for a few minutes once you press the play button.
