Ulead Media Studio 7.0

Posted on by admin

MediaStudio Pro 7.0, a significant upgrade of Ulead's video-editing suite, brings faster performance for real-time preview and on-the-fly conversion, improved editing functionality, and useful new features such as quick DV-segment indexing and animation tools. The package's working style is very different from that of competitor Adobe Premiere. Premiere has the fit and polish of a European sedan with integrated components, while MediaStudio Pro is like an all-terrain vehicle with extra gadgets and custom add-ons. The Ulead program actually comprises six apps, each with a profusion of features and options.The installer CD installs the entire suite in one go. The process went smoothly for us, but it's a bit laborious; you have to wade through a good number of windows. During installation, MediaStudio Pro automatically loads Windows components, such as DirectX.

Oddly, if Windows Media 9 Format SDK is already installed, it offers to uninstall itself, which forced us to cancel the routine. The program sucks up 160MB, including 50MB for sample files. The five core applications are Video Capture, Video Editor, Audio Editor, Video Paint, and CG Infinity. Ulead VCD/DVD Disc Image Recorder is a bonus mini app for burning images to disc. You'll find them all in the Start menu's Ulead MediaStudio Pro folder. The company also tossed in a limited version of its DVD MovieFactory, which is designed for video export only; it doesn't have the full product's direct capture to DVD. Each app has a Switch menu for quick toggling between MediaStudio components and other installed Ulead software.

Transferring media files between applications is easy, especially through the shared Production Library folder accessible from each program.MediaStudio Pro's interface is on the busier side, with lots of windows and floating items. You'll see palettes, toolbars, and menus with text and icons, plus a profusion of sliders and direct controls for manipulating elements such as motion paths. What's more, these all provide access to a sometimes bewildering array of advanced options with multiple levels and dialog boxes.Video Editor, a full-featured nonlinear editor, is the heart of MediaStudio Pro. Its familiar interface includes the Production Library for organizing media and effects, the A/B Timeline, and Source and Preview windows. Each element leads to a dialog box with extensive settings, from keyframed fades to Timeline-display options.The impressive new Scan DV Tape feature alone is worth the upgrade. It prescans your tape at scan-forward speeds of up to about 10X (trading quickness for quality and accuracy), finds the individual clips, and places a thumbnail of each in a DV album. You can then batch-capture the full clips when you need them.

The process works with any cassette that will record DV. /sc/21002895-2-300-SS1.gif' width='300' height='225' border='0' /The new Scan DV Tape feature prescans your tape and builds a DV album with thumbnails of individual clips.MediaStudio Pro offers color correction for highlights, midtones, and shadows, as well as a broad selection of useful effects. The Video Paint rotoscoping application gives you more-sophisticated options, enabling you to perform manual retouching, insert and remove elements, and add overlay effects such as laser flashes that move across the frames. With CG Infinity, you can create dynamic titles and graphics, animate over time with keyframed motion paths, and adjust transparency.As for audio, you can dynamically adjust levels with Video Editor's Audio Mixing panel, or switch to Audio Editor to edit clips and apply filters. Unfortunately, Audio Editor failed to start up on three different test machines; when it succeeded, it crashed when we tried to use it. After several rounds of discussion with the product team, Ulead replicated the difficulty: a conflict with other installed video programs. Ulead never identified the problem apps, but it provided a patch so that we could work around them; the company also said the solution would be rolled into online upgrades.

Last year's Ulead VideoStudio 6.0 won accolades, but Ulead has lost some ground with version 7.0. While the company made many worthwhile additions, including support for the new DVD-VR format and a nifty multicut editing tool, VideoStudio 7.0's effects, sounds, and DVD menus are woefully behind the competitions'. Even though we still think of VideoStudio as one of the better editing apps around, you'll get far better results with the slightly more expensive.

If you own an older version of VideoStudio, we don't think it's worth paying the $50 upgrade fee unless you really must have the DVR support. Installing VideoStudio is quick and easy.

In addition to the setup CD, you get a second disc that includes audio and video samples as well as a 10-step video tutorial-a big help for beginners. You won't feel cramped by VideoStudio's timeline view. With one click, you can expand it to fill your whole screen.Just like version 6.0, the main window features a large preview window in the center with the storyboard and timelines for editing beneath it and eight tool tabs along the top. VideoStudio's DVD menus are attractive and customizable, even if they still can't compare with the ultracool menus you'll see in and VideoWave. One notable improvement: the annoying Start menu, which required you to decide from the get-go whether you were making a DVD, a VCD, or an SVCD before you could begin a project, is gone.VideoStudio 7.0 retains version 6.0's strong set of features and adds a few new ones to the mix.

Our favorite newcomer is the multicut editing tool, which allows you to select and delete several segments at the same time. For example, you can select and delete all the commercials in your video in one fell swoop. In addition to MPEG-1 and MPEG-2, VideoStudio now supports the DVD-VR format, which is commonly used by camcorders that record to DVD-RAM and DVD-R and DVD set-top recorders. While VideoStudio 6.0's Instant Preview lets you take a quick, lower-quality look at your edits, you can preview your work in real time in version 7.0. But one time-saver is more of a bother than a boon: VideoStudio automatically adds random transitions between clips, which made us crazy. Fortunately, you can turn this feature off in the program's Preferences and select your own.This version includes a total of 190 effects (5 of which are new to version 7.0) that you can easily add to clips, but the results looked far too amateurish.

One of the five new filters, Bubbles, was supposed to add floating bubbles to a scene, but you'll never confuse them with the real thing. Worse, the included audio samples sound like they were made with a cheap Casio organ. VideoStudio's Bubbles filter is an interesting idea, but the results don't pop.On the bright side, Ulead integrated DVD-menu creation: instead of using a separate app as with version 6.0, you can create DVD menus in a new window from within VideoStudio. But the DVD tool contains a paltry 30 menu templates, and they're of only average quality. None has animated backgrounds or the polish of VideoWave's or.VideoStudio now comes with a tool for making 3D and animated titles.

Just type your title, and you can easily move it around with your mouse to whatever angle you want. While it's a nice addition, we wish we didn't have to launch it separately.VideoStudio's support options are above average but not outstanding. You can access FAQs, e-mail support, and free phone support (Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. PT) from the site. Our call about a minor problem we had with batch capture using a Canon DV camcorder was answered quickly and accurately.
