Videoguys' Insider - Power User Mike Shaw on Pinnacle Studio 9 Mike is a long time Pinnacle Studio user, going all the way back to the Studio 400. He's been a long time friend of the Videoguys and can be found participating in many on line forums. Mike runs a really cool UK based website for Pinnacle users. http://www.mikeshaw.co.uk It began as a Studio users site, but he has recently added several excellent articles on Pinnacle's new Liquid Edition software. His Edition for Studio users article is a MUST read for anyone migrating up from Studio. We are very fortunate to have Mike as the author for our first Videoguys' Insider Power User Story. I think old, new and future Studio users will find this article very informative. Click here to read his in depth review of Studio 9!

This provides consumers with an easy means of connecting any video source, such as a camcorder, or VCR, with their home computer, without ever having to open up the PC. The Studio MovieBox products deliver a complete, end-to-end solution for capturing, editing and outputting videos on to tape, DVD, and CD, so that they can be played on home VCR’s, DVD players, sent by email or shown on the Internet.

A new family of external solutions
Both Studio MovieBox products connect to the PC using the latest high-speed inter-connection standards which makes them easy to install and use. “With these two external solutions, we are not only providing the flexibility to work with most video formats, we are making video editing easier and more accessible for all consumers who might be uncomfortable installing an internal capture board, or who want to connect in a minute to any laptop or desktop PC.” Said Simon Isted, UK Sales Manager (Consumer Products) at Pinnacle Systems.
The unusual design for Studio MovieBox was created in Germany by FA Porsche. The design is as elegant as it is easy to handle, and very simple to access. Users can leave it on their desks and be ready to start in just a few minutes.
