REVIEW AVID PINNACLE STUDIO SOFTWARE
Without taking a scientific study, I would guess that this is the most inexpensive, full-featured video editing software available.Īvid’s Pinnacle Dazzle Video Creator Plus HD works exactly as advertised and then some, being a very easy way to get video from your camcorder, or VHS tape player, to your PC. The software features track-based audio and video editing, a titler, as well as transition effects. Once completed, you can then output your video back through the DVC-107 dongle or even to online services like YouTube. Even laypersons should have no problem picking up the in’s and out’s of the Pinnacle Studios HD software. The included software is very east to use, and I am not just writing that from someone who is used to software like Sony’s Vegas and Adobe’s Premiere software. This unadvertised feature makes the Video Creator Plus HD a great solution to bridge the divide between those of us with FireWire-equipped camcorders and those of us without. You can also use the DVC-107 dongle, once fully-installed, as a means of getting live video from your USB port-equipped camcorders for use in streaming video services like USTREAM.

For the would-be filmmakers out there, getting video from your camcorder is equally easy, and the system takes the technical load off of you so that you can focus on actually editing your video. For instance, you can transfer over video from your VHS cassette players to digitize your old home movies. Using the Video Creator Plus HD is very easy, allowing you to get video from any source which uses the accepted cabling. The design is pleasing to the eye as well, which makes it nothing you would be ashamed to have connected to your laptop while you edit video. Thankfully, this makes the video capture dongle extremely easy to take with you in your jump bag. The peripheral is powered all by the USB connection, so there is no added RF adapter to worry about toting around. The DVC-107 features ports to accept both RCA as well as S-Video inputs as well as RCA (stereo) audio inputs. The DVC-107 video capture dongle features an all-white or all-black, slick plastic shell with plastic-insulated cabling that ends in a USB 2.0 plug.
