 Rating:  - Software This Bad Ships in a Box?I bought and installed Pinnacle Studio 9 Plus years ago for a Windows 98 box, and more recently migrated it to a vanilla Windows XP dual-processor machine. That such unreliable software would be sold in a box amazes me. It consistently crashes at least once per hour on large (~hour) projects while I'm editing. I've learned to keep saving projects under new names so I can recover! Right now, I'm trying to render a 20 minute video, and it consistently hangs at one point. I've had the hanging problem ...

When it does work, it takes to to the "pinnacle" of a project, then either crashes, won't burn, or will burn with very messy results and will make you very sorry you spent money and time on this piece of garbage.

I was immediately greeted with the product registration pages and was unsuccessful in getting past them. It repeatedly prompted for the product name and version, seemingly ... Read More Rating: - Dishonest companyDo not buy anything from Pinnacle. Their software deceptively leads you to believe that you need to purchase further programs to burn DVDs. I did so and got incorrect activation codes twice before requesting a refund which they have refused to give even though the product does not work and meets their advertised return policy. I have filed a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission for deceptive trade policies and knowingly offering defective products. |
