Reviews
Ulead MediaStudio Pro 7.0, is the newest version of Ulead’s professional video editing software. MediaStudio Pro
7.0 now boasts software-only, real-time editing, display and output features that outperform other non-linear editing software
solutions in the professional video editing software market.
Ulead MediaStudio Pro 7.0 is non-linear video editing software for video professionals who want the advantages of DV,
MPEG-2, Internet streaming video and Video CD/DVD authoring. MediaStudio Pro comprises of five-modules that include video
capture, editing, audio editing, video painting and powerful CG graphics. These modules combine to give the most complete
set of post-production creative tools available in the professional desktop editing market. Developed to produce video content
for broadcast, tape, CD-ROM, Video CD/DVD and the Internet, MediaStudio Pro 7.0 creates high production value video at a cost-effective
price.
Performance benchmarks from Ulead show that this newest version of MediaStudio Pro has the real-time ability to play
and output five or more DV streams simultaneously on a single processor Pentium® 4 processor-based 3.0 GHz system. If complex
sections in the project exceed the particular system’s RT performance, MediaStudio Pro 7.0 saves time by flagging these
sections, giving the user the option to render those segments only. As a result, the entire project can be played back or
exported smoothly, without unnecessarily losing time on a full-project render. MediaStudio Pro 7.0 further reduces wait-time
by offering a multi-threaded code base to use dual processors and Intel’s new Hyper-Threading Technology (HT). HT Technology
enables a new class of high-performance desktop PCs that can work quickly among several computing applications at the same
time, or provide extra performance for individual software programs that are multithreaded.
“We’re pleased that Ulead has designed MediaStudio Pro 7.0 with a multithreaded code base so that it can
fully harness the power of our innovative Hyper-Threading technology,” said David L. Brown, general manager, Platform
Enabling Group, Intel Corporation. “The combination of our new technology with the high performance of MediaStudio Pro
7.0 results in a video editing powerhouse that saves video editing professionals significant amounts of time with robust real-time
edit and output capabilities.”
“We’re thrilled to bring this next generation of MediaStudio Pro to the professional video market,” commented
Mark Wurdemann, Marketing Manager, Ulead UK. “As a video editor myself, I know what it means to have my creative flow
disrupted while I wait to render. With MediaStudio Pro 7.0, you not only have software-only flexibility, but real-time capabilities
that significantly reduce your work time, letting you spend more energy in the creative process.”
