Pinnacle Studio 25 | Video Editing & Screen Recording Software [PC Disc] [Old Version]

Great features but very intuitive. Also strong training support ...

Nice software, I love it

Installed 2 times and no program launch after spalsh. I have placed a support request with Corel. Waiting for response. Update - Customer service has not responded to three requests. Update 2 - Customer service replied by email. After several hours of trial and error, I bought a Roxio burning program and was able to make ISO videos and burn them to disk.

I have used Pinnacle for years. From my first version 17 it was easy to use and had more features than I could ever use. This new version seems faster processing, contains more features yet keeps the basic format so Im not re-learning the basic format.

I havent seen such bad software since the 90s! Heres a partial list of problems I had with it: 1) Video clips got cut short when importing 2) Video clips got garbled after editing (ie, jerky, jumpy quality) 3) Screen recorder produced poor quality recordings - worse than many freeware programs 4) Preview didnt correspond well to video, making it impossible to edit with any precision 5) Program froze frequently 6) Tech support experiencing higher call volume than usual I would rather get a root canal than work with this software again. Luckily, I found a freeware video editor with a cheap upgrade that works vastly better than Pinnacle Studio!

I have used the Studio product for over 10 years with limited success with the import function. Even though my PC exceeds the requirements with processor, memory and video it still would lock up on import. The new version 25 while I was importing a DVD the video would duplicate making editing a nightmare. Unfortunately I downloaded the product and cant return. Be very careful and consider other alternatives even if they cost more money.

This paste works for filling in scratches but does not change the colours in general.

I started with Dazzle many years ago and have been along for a sweet ride with Pinnacle Studios ever since. Pinnacle 25 has been great so far as we are overseas and pulling our various trip media into something which is reasonable to share with others. I am getting familiar with Iphone media formats as one of us has recently moved over from Android and GUESS WHAT?!?! Pinnacle 25 works with Iphone too. Lots of variation in media input as well as output formats. Great job gals and guys !

I have been using Pinnacle Studio for a very long time, maybe close to 10 years. I have used it for personal video editing programs, and it is very user friendly. Recently, it was the editing and voiceover program I used for my podcast from 2019-2020, and it was great. I started using Pinnacle Studio 25 for my new podcast, and I was having some technical issues that kept me from doing any work. After the customer rep was unable to help me through chat, my issue went to their email support. The delay time between responses is absolutely horrible. Sometimes it takes more than two days to get a response from what I assume is an outsourced representative, and not someone knowledgeable about Pinnacle Studio. This issue started around late August 20022, and as of late October 2022, I am still trying to get the issue resolved (audio issues). Telephone support is just as bad. I have no problem with outsourcing customer support, but Pinnacle and its parent company (or companies) have decided to leave the solution management to people who are using a manual for answers. I have been unable to use the program properly for almost two months, and it is affecting the production of my podcast. I would recommend using Pinnacle Studio, but if you ever need technical support, plan on it taking an absurd amount of time to get resolved.

I have been using Corel Draw for 30 years and have used Pinnacle studio since version 7. I made over 300 professional diving videos with Studio 7-9. I loved the product and the results helped me land a gig with The Amazing Race. So when it came time to make videos for my employer for You Tube and Facebook naturally I chose Studio 25. Though a lot has been added over the years the appearance was recognizable and I went right to work. Since then it has been nothing short of a pain in the butt. I would add a clip and split the sound to adjust noise reduction and the sound in the edit mode shows graphically but you cannot hear it. I would have to close the program and go back in only have it to work until I made another adjustment. The same happened when i added music to the background. I was expecting this clip to take less than an hour to complete. I already have 8 hours on it and it is still not finished... making me look like an idiot in front of my boss. I would be happy if you brought back Studio 8! This version should have not made it out from Beta. WAIT... it gets worse. I contacted customer support last Thursday 2/9/22 (from some foreign country) and it is Monday 2/14/22 and I have yet to hear back from them. I gave it 2 stars simply because I love the original programs and know what it can do. Otherwise... 1 star!
