Am cautat multa vreme un program de editare simplu, pentru amatori, care sa nu consume toate resursele sisemului si sa mearga repede. Cele profesionale sunt gurmande la resurse si pline de functii de care rar ai nevoie ca amator plus ca pretul nu se justifica. O vreme am lucrat cu Movie Maker iar in final am ramas la MoviePad. Am testat acum si Magix Movie Edit Pro Plus... pare fain si cu destule optiuni de editare si cu toate astea se misca bine. Pretul este insa pe masura.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your feedback, Lucian!
DeleteFrustration in video editing is normal for me because I'm a newbie. Layout of function and features is crucial because different programs have different GUI. Confusion in function is arise.
ReplyDeleteI use some of Magix software and I must say that this is a superb programs. Easy to manage and use. I already use their photo editing and music editing programs.

Yeah, I still encounter frustration sometimes but I guess this is normal when you try to do new things.
DeleteI've been using Magix since 2010 after trying out a bunch of other programs and none of those really worked well with my GoPro HD MP4 files.
count me in
ReplyDeleteI like Magix software generally, i have tried the free v.15 some time ago, but it was limited(free) in codec support, and i have tried v16 or 17.. ? dont remember.
ReplyDeleteThe software is great, i love the color correction tools.
The frustration with video editing programs.. slow speed when rendering/exporting the edited video
My biggest frustration of editind movie is time for making someface shortcut and translating to some other format.
ReplyDeleteI tried Magix Movie Edit.It is very comfortable for me to make operation time short.I am looking forward for your reply.
I don't like the small number of opportunitie (transitions, effects, media generator). Have to look for what that connect various modules, plugins. I really liked Magix Movie Edit Pro Plus and very happy with the quality of this program. Very talented, nice easy to use. Thanks for this nice giveawaz and this chance to win a license for very useful and needful video edition software! Best Regards.
ReplyDeleteI got to know this software trough this blog and along with the great tuturials i gave it a try and i liked very much. the gui didn't seem confuse and some functions were actually very intuitive to use and very pratical, like the cross fade that we only have to drag one clip into the other. My frustation is more related to hardware issues rather than the software itself since i don't have a great machine and i can't get the video preview to flow smooth.
ReplyDeleteanyway it't a great software, powerfull yet very easy to use and of course i'd like very much to have it.
regards to all
Yup - I kinda have the same frustration - I need a better computer to have the preview run smoothly.
DeleteThanks for entering, Miguel!
My biggest frustration is that video editing software either does too little (windows movie maker) or it too darn complicated and expensive and I have to spend 2 years and $600 learning how to use it.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I` d like to say that I like all kinds of Magix softs, cause they are high quality out put tech.things. And it is all the same what it is - pictures, music or something else. The tools of Magix softs make their job perfectly and diligently. I have tested this video making program and can say a lot of good about, but in short it is:
ReplyDelete- this program has more bigger working tracks than another video making programs, which I have tasted before! As usuals, simply video maker has only 3 tracks: video, sound, transformation effects. Here in Magix, I have notice near 32 !!! It gives the filmmaker possibility to be more creative and produce really great unusual films, to create many voices scenes and effects.
- more bigger and great collections of animated video fonts for design video film, including 3d fonts. It also includes nice design ready templates and they really can make a design of the film very like professional cinema film, if will be using by video creators in it.
- there are many various special tools inside it, ready to use for quick cutting sounds, video, quick making design of needed parts of it without problems. Utility of 3d making. In one word, it is program "all in one", for quick and creative work without buying any additional softs which need to make your film great and interesting and pleasant to see, Magix Movie Edit Pro Plus 2013 is a "big egoist" :-) in this way and it likes to do everything alone with its own complex of programs utilities. Really great program to want to have it in own comp. :-)
My biggest frustration with video editing software is a combination of the lack of options; the time needed to render the video, and; the price. That last one is a huge factor for me, for reasons I told you the other day.
ReplyDeleteMagix is absolutely amazing. With the capabilities, it would really come in handy for my ideas I have planned in my head. Returning to creating music videos; doing video reviews; doing Let's Plays on YouTube, and; possibly doing a movie. The lack of options in other software is one reason why I stopped creating music vdeos.

Thanks for entering, Giniro!
DeleteThanks for this Great Giveaway Dude.
ReplyDeleteI feel totally insane when look at the user interface of many video editing tools which available on the market. They really press me down..:-)
Magix is not as confuse as other tools there. So I think this One would give too many chances to explore it. This tool is really great for me working with Video Editing.
Please count me in too..
