Summary: Defective product. Don't Buy.
Comment: Defective product. One CD had some other [digital still] program on it. Second CD was blank. [Checked in 3 CD drives] Came with no installation instructions...only a USE booklet relevant to Digital Stills. Had to uninstall the digital still program; but still noticing a remnant "update alert" screen that popped up once. Had to return to Amazon for refund[pending]. Glad I dealt with Amazon. They have decent return process; but not sure how to recoup my return shipping which web page said will be refunded as well. This may be decent program; but I will never try to find out again. Ron

Summary: Take the good and the bad
Comment: There's a lot to like with VideoStudio 11.5. I like the interface. It is very simple to capture video and edit it in a straightforward manner. It has some usable transitions and basic audio editing features. There are a number of advanced features, but - frankly - they are an awful lot of trouble to use.

I've run into several conversion issues. After troubleshooting for a couple of days, I finally gave up on trying to convert AVI files at the DVD creation screen. They had to be pre-converted or the application would consistently crash.

Summary: Could have been much better
Comment: If you don't have much money and lots of time on your hands this program will work but, they could have made it alot better. I guess that's why they keep making up grades LOL.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Very Good, Powerful Editor
Comment: This is a very good and powerful editor. It has all the effects that I need for an awesome video. The only other video editor recomended by me would be Sony Vegas Movie Studio 9.0 Platnium Pro Pack. Those are the two most powerful editors that I know of. If you have a Xp, and want to make video editing easy, yet effective, this is your editor. If you don't mind doing some reading or watching videos on YouTube(tm) to figure out how to do every thing, then Sony Vegas is your best choice.

Pros: Very good editor, many effects, YouTube Compatabilaty.

Cons: Installs slow (Around 3 - 5 Hours)

Summary: The dreaded "Unspecifed error 5:0:0" error
Comment: Corel Ulead VideoStudio 11.5 Plus [OLD VERSION]

This software has some great features, once you get used to the quirky combination of three Ulead Products. But, one of these integrated products has some serious defects. When you create a DVD (by Share) inside VideoStudio you are taken to a scaled down version of Ulead Movie Factory. For the first several home-video DVDs I made this seemed to work, though discounting the "quirky" interface. But, then I ran across the dreaded "Unspecified error 5:0:0" error that seems to have no resolution. I tried removing one of the videos, converting it and so forth, but nothing seemed to work. I might add that the videos were TV captures from a high-end Hauppauge DVR card that has not had any issues with any other software I've used, such as DVD Movie Factory 4.0, Vegas Studio and so forth. Unfortunately, when you hit this error during encoding you've reached the end of the line. The software just won't create a DVD, so I went back to my really old copy of DVD Movie Factory 4.0. Money wasted. Buyer beware.
