Mine was Pinnacle Studio 7 - Amazing program for the time.



https://www.videomaker.com/article/c...nacle-studio-7

Reason being that you didn't need to capture all your footage from the DV cam to your harddrive. Space was at a premium and it took ages to dump even with firewire.

What it used to do was to create a low rez version of your DV tape and you edited with that. Then, when it came to rendering it would take control of your camera and rewind, fast forward etc etc to just use the bits you wanted !

Amazing at the time, but it came with a secret feature that blew me away ! I actually bought a copy and had the SN and registered it to me. But someone told me to uninstall it, and reinstall agin, but when it asked me for my SN instead of typing 3243-9654-1654... ect, to just fill in all the spaces with sevens... As in studio 7...

So I tried it with 7777-7777-7777... etc, and it accepted it... But when I went in, it had unlocked ALL the premium content that was available to download direct from the pinnacle website itself !

So I did, and had ALL the effects, ALL the filters, ALL the EVERYTHINGS! Would have cost me nearly a thousand or so to get it all, but it was all there for free ! RESULT...

EDIT: OH yeah, and 'Smart Sound' too. It generated royalty free music that fitted in with the movement on screen... How did I forget that?

I loved that little program and it was a great gateway to using adobe premiere, which I started doing after Studio 7 didn't seem quite as up-to-date...

Wat did you start with / enjoy most and why?

Of all of the ones I have tried over the years, I found Sony Vegas to be the most powerful related to its ease of learning.

Prefer Adobe now.

I used to use Pinnacle Studio....

I remember back when you needed a special video card to input video..... A 1934 card? 1943 card? I can't remember.

Was never much into producing vids - but I remember an app by MS...think it was called PhotoStory. I liked it. Fairly basic and easy to use at the time.

It was a "DV Firewire iLink IEEE 1394" card... I remember the 1st one I had... I thought having it in my computer with its pentium 3 processor was like something out of the future !

I remember that ! I used to do that with about 5 pics to create a lil sexy story each day and upload it back in 2003 when I was living in Thousand Oaks

Reminds me of sitting in the 3 car garage that was converted to a multi user office that looked like the launch control at nasa !

Chiming in.... since 2006 we are using Final Cut Pro for editing pictures BUT what nobody mentioned here so far, pictures need sound ( i guess nobody gives a shit???) and for that also since 2006 we are using Sound Track Pro ( with full studio quality editing and mixing console) which works now only on an old iMac. It was, and still is, an amazing combo. Against all odds we are using the old versions since Apple completely fucked up later upgrades and completely abandoned sound editing and mixing software....so no more Sound Track Pro

...if our system ever crashes we will be fucked... and would have to retool to Avid and Pro Tools
