    Video editing software

    does anybody here use http://www.magix.com/us/movie-edit-pro/ ?

    saw a very nice video edited with it, but, there seems to be little support or tutorials in English for it

    tried Adobe Premiere pro, PITA.

    Sony Vegas Movie Studio is less than $100 and will do most everything you need.

        You might want to checkout PowerDirector 8, there is even a free trial.

          How could you not like Premier Pro? I love the program and After Effects too. Well CS5 and CS4 at least.

            VEGAS almost looks and feels like that magix s/w.

            i used to have magix and i liked the interface. then i found vegas, when it was from a company called sonic foundry. this was like version 2.

            i'm now on version 8 for sony and havent looked back.

            once, i d/l the trial of premiere and i couldnt get used to their interface.

              Vegas is cheap and effective.

                Having never used Vegas, I can't speak to ease of use, but I hear rave reviews about it all of the time and the results I see are great. I do think Premier Pro has a steeper learning curve (it took me a week to feel comfortable with simple editing) but it feels more like classic, physical, film editing. Swapping files around the Suite can be annoying, but I hear that the latest version (CS5) makes it easier, but that's not really an issue with Premier Pro.

                I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you buy the Creative Suite from Adobe, you have more tools at your disposal at the cost of a steeper learning curve and a much higher price. It will likely do anything you can ever want to do, creatively, on a computer.

                  One thing about Sony Vegas is that it's prone to crashing/hanging with HD movie files. Make sure you go visit their support forum, search for 'render crashes' and follow the steps there until Sony fixes the problem.
                  I don't know why it happens since I'm not a computer geek but those steps help.

                    Could be a memory leak.
