    Thoroughly endorse the last comment. Just moved up to 26 and for me, the cherry on the cake would be a transcript (which I would be delighted to purchase). Miklos explains everything so well and at a good speed for understanding. He takes time to show and tell you where to find things rather than giving vague instructions such as "Click here" when before you know it, the cursor has been moved on to the next action and you`ve missed seeing exactly where "here" is - or was. You feel relaxed watching the video, unlike all other "guides" that dash from one thing to the next, thank you Miklos.

      Thank you, Lesley. I posted a copy of the transcript on my website, www.confrontingbelievers.com/ , under the Articles tab.

    The best tutorial I've seen on Pinnacle software. This really served to get me started and doing everything I need to do at this point. Thank you, and well done!

    Thank you. I’ve been watching Pinnicle instructional videos for years, made by fast talking rockers
    complete with annoying rap-crap noise. Your clearly spoken and understandable instruction has convinced me to upgrade to a new edition.
    Thank you, thank you. Keep up the good work.

    This has to be one of the best training videos on TH-cam. My Pinnacle Studio 20 sat dormant for a number of months until I understood the step by step ways of making a movie. Thank you for your efforts.

      Thanks, Juan. It’s possible I might do another sometime in the future, but basically, I focus on my interest in debating religion. I found PinnacleStudioPro (Maliek Whitaker) a good source for tutorials on particular operations.

    What a great video! Everything was explained beautifully. I first bought this when it first came out and am thinking of buying 26. Most things seem to be the same, just enhanced, but I still love this program over others and am glad most things are the same from one version to the next.

    Greeting from California. I found your tutorial extremely helpful. It's my first attempt at video. I haven't even open the package until I saw your tutorial. Pinnacle Studio seems like a very powerful program. I'm glad you broke it down so it won't be so overwhelming. Pinnacle should pay you for this lesson. Thanks again.

    I looked at lots of tutorials that only confuse or just simply make things worse. This Tutorial got me started straight away. I was very excited about creating home movies as I had collected so many files over recent years. I had started with Studio 8 then 10 then 12 then 19 but the last one was so different I turned my back on it. THANK YOU Miklos for restoring my enthusiasm to create more family memories.

    • @2994485
      @2994485  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, ACR, I appreciate the appreciation. Yeah, I think it was Studio 16 when they changed the whole format of the program and you had to relearn everything. It can be very frustrating working with the program, but 1) if does get easier as you get more experienced, and 2) once you have a finished video, it’s great to have it. Sometime in the next few months I plan to post another tutorial, on how to solve all kinds of problems that come up. Best.

I just purchased Pinnacle Studio 24, but found your tutorial of version 19 to be EXTREMELY helpful. May I say again, the best ever tutorial. Lonnie Theer, Shannon Road Media.

  • @leelewis926
    @leelewis926 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I really enjoyed your first instructional video. It was very clear concise and informative. I was last using pinnacle studios version 8 and 9. Then in 2015 I had a serious accident. I was left incapacitated in a nursing home for 3 years. At the end of this time I was finally able to get out on my own again but my knowledge of the programs that I had so freely used before were now incapacitated. I started again with version 2019. That is the version that I am using now. The changes from version 9 to version 2019 are extreme and from my point of view quite radical. Your video was very clear and concise and exceptionally informative. I will still need to study some more of your videos do you get a better grasp of the new environment I am working in. It will not be easy, but hopefully it will be fun!
    Some of the things that impressed me about your video was that you spoke very clearly, you did not go too fast, and you were very helpful in giving tips without making it overly complicated. I think your video tutorials that I have seen so far are excellent. I hope to learn more from watching more of him. Thank you for providing your expertise to the community at large.
    I have not published a new video on TH-cam since before 2015. However, if you want to see any of my work you can search for me with the key word of “jubchuQun.”

    • @2994485
      @2994485  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Lee. I used to be a teacher. (Religion is actually my area of expertise.)
      Yeah, I remember groaning when I got Studio version 14 or 15 (?) and saw that they had completely changed the setup and how I’d have learn everything all over again. But like I say, even though it can be quite complex and buggy, it’s a very capable program, and the more time you spend with it, the more you get used to how to do things and how to get around problems. Glad you’re physically better after your accident. I’m having a reunion with my college roommates next month, as we do every year, but we’ll be meeting at a restaurant instead of having Star Trek hamburgers. 😊

    Miklos - just watched your Basics, A to Z and found it very helpful and easy to understand/watch. I'm starting to use Pinnacle Studio 24 and your tutorial is definitely helping. Taking my old VHS tapes of kids growing up and converting them to digital. Not doing any fancy work to them or enhancing them any, not sure I can as they are from the 1980's - 90's, but you helped me create a nice transition point from one segment to the next with a descriptive title. Going to watch your tutorial on making a menu next. Thanks again.

    • @2994485
      @2994485  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, Darwin. The Menu one is for disks, and I think there is a general trend now away from disks. Myself, I now put material on an external hard drive to save it. I read that Studio morphed over the years from a commercial product for the pubic, to a more advanced program for professionals. When one does family videos, usually you don’t have to do anything too complex, but when you get ambitious, things can get tricky. I’m going to post another video later this month on how to solve various Studio problems. Best.

    DISABLING UNUSED PANELS.
    Thank you for your sharing your knowledge. I have a question on how to disable Panels. I am using version 25. I have a project in which I use the Pan and Zoom Source Window constantly. I have the Timeline Panel on the up-right corner of the screen and to its left a panel that is a combination of the Source/360/Pan and Zoom Source Panels. The problem is that by clicking elsewhere or grabbing the playhead in the timeline, the software automatically jumps back to the Source panel. This is very annoying because I need to see what is happening in the Pan and Zoom Panel. I do not use the 360 function and really don't need to see the Source image. Is there a way to disable the other two Panels or have the Pan and Zoom Panel be the one that keeps showing when I click on the timeline or grab the playhead? Thank you.

    • @2994485
      @2994485  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Glad you found it helpful. Keep in mind that things frequently go wrong, something doesn’t work, something gets messed up, etc., etc. If someone says the program is “buggy,” I’d agree. But I’m not sure other programs are better. As you get more experienced, you gradually learn how to avoid problems and how to do “workarounds.” Note my recent post at the top of the comments, stuff I’ve learned since posting the video.

    Glad I found this. I've used Studio 12 for years - loved it as was extremely simple and intuitive. I later upgraded to Studio 20 but have resisted using it for a couple years (haven't made much in last couple years anyway) as didn't take time to really learn what I was doing and it seemed to be so much rocket science compared to 12. I now have some editing I want to do and want better effects than the few available in 12 and your tutorial has helped remove much of the "rocket science" so I feel more like trying 20 again. Thanks.

      Hi Bernard. Thanks. I just bought version 25 myself a little while ago. Nothing for sure, but maybe by the end of the summer I’ll post the top ten differences or key things about version 25 compared to earlier versions. So far I see a few nice improvements, though I still find how to set up which windows show up on screen to be confusing. I just fiddle around till I get what I like, or Save and then reboot the program to get the basic setup.

    Your video is excellent!!! Thank you! Having trouble adding a new text window after the first window. I hope it's something simple. Thanks again, you are a great teacher!

    • @2994485

      Thanks Ezra. I usually add another track above if I want to add more text to a segment with text already on it.

    TWELVE MORE TIPS SINCE VIDEO WAS POSTED
    INSERTING CLIPS INTO YOUR MOVIE LINE - Very important concept to avoid major screw-ups! - Under “Overwrite Mode” at far right: The “Smart Editing Mode” (the wand icon) will MOVE the material on that track further to the right without changing anything, and leave a gap on other tracks at the insertion spot. Whereas the “OVERwrite Mode” (the down arrow icon) will insert material right OVER what you already have there (normally not what you want!) and NOT move anything. Usually you don't want to use this mode unless it's just TRANSITIONS you are inserting, in which case you do want to use this mode, so that no clips to the right move.
    KEEPING TRACK OF CLIP LOCATIONS - I had been used to putting my clips on the desktop and then importing them from there with the Import function. But lately I’ve found it less confusing to gather all my material into one folder, then to import my clips from that folder USING THE DRAG AND DROP method. I drag the Studio window to the left, and have the folder open on the right and drag the clips over to the Studio work station at upper left. If dragging and dropping doesn't work for you, try cutting and pasting. (Oddly, when I try to drag the Studio window from a spot at the top right of its window, the program closes! But if I pick a spot to drag from the top left, it works fine, though the window does not reduce to half-screen, but only to about three quarters of it, which works OK.)
    USING SOUNDSTAGE MUSIC - If you use less than 30 seconds of these 30-second music selections, SoundStage automatically decides WHICH part of the selection is heard. But if you want a different part of it to be heard, you can simply place the whole 30-second selection in a track below and bring the volume down to zero for all but the part you want heard.
    REFUSES TO EXPORT - Usually, a window will come up and give you the exact time of the spot where the problem is. Go there, zoom in closely and look for anything odd there, and redo that section. If you zoom in all the way, you will sometimes find a sliver of a segment that has slid under another segment. If you delete that sliver, that often solves the problem. Or, sometimes that sliver keeps you from putting a transition in at the spot. Or, sometimes too many special effects or Slo Mo messes things up. Maybe redo that section separately, at the end of the movie line, and then insert it into the proper spot.
    USING THE “MARK IN/MARK OUT” FUNCTION - This is very useful if you want to see how just a particular portion of your movie looks. At the middle of the tool bar over your movie line are three icons - “Mark in,” “Mark Out,” and “Clear mark in/mark out.” Set your marks and click Export. Saves a lot of time instead of exporting your entire movie each time. ALSO, if a movie refuses to export, and you get no window telling you the specific spot for the offending glitch, you might be able to find the glitch by repeatedly using this function (which half, which quarter, which eighth, etc. works or does not work) to locate the glitch and then you redo that small offending portion. Laborious, yes, but better than having to redo your entire movie.
    MANUAL FADES PULLING IN ALL YOUR STUFF FROM THE RIGHT - If you use the MANUAL “drag in from the corner” method of adding a fade out, it will pull all your material on that track in from the right, and mess up your syncing with other tracks. (Disaster!) To avoid this, use the “Send to Timeline” method instead (Organize > Transitions > Edit > Fade in or out > Right-click > Send to Timeline). Or, you can drag the edge of the segment away from the next segment, manually drag in a fade, and THEN drag the edge back to where it was. That will keep the material on the right from being pulled in. Or, better yet, temporarily switch on "Overwrite Mode" -- See first tip at top "INSERTING CLIPS INTO YOUR MOVIE LINE."
    Note that if you use the “Send to Timeline” method and have your pointer AT A SPLIT, it puts the fade in at the start of the next segment; if you have your pointer IN THE MIDDLE OF A SEGMENT, it puts the fade in at the END of that segment. Also note that you must select your target track first to land the fade into the right track (click at the extreme left of the track to get the orange line up). I usually prefer the “Send to Timeline” method, because it keeps the duration of the transitions the same, as set up under Setup (at upper left) > Control Panel > Project Settings > Default Durations.
    KEEPING A GAP OPEN - Go under the tiny orange dropdown arrow at the very far right of your toolbar. If you select the bottom option - “Overwrite Mode” - a gap will remain open after you delete that segment. In the normal “Smart Editing Mode,” if you delete a segment on one track, the line will not close up if there is material on an adjacent track, but it WILL close up automatically if there is no material on an adjacent track. Remember that if 20 segments on one of your tracks suddenly gets moved to a wrong spot, you can highlight all 20 and drag them back to the proper spot AS A GROUP. But, usually you can use Ctrl+Z to get back to what you had.
    SMART EDITING MODE or OVERWRITE MODE? - What I do is normally keep the “Smart Editing Mode” on (the top option). The Smart Editing Mode sometimes SPLITS UP or moves other segments, so if you’re worried, zoom out to see what happened, if anything moved. I select the Overwrite Mode (the bottom option) for times I want to keep a gap open.
    Also, the Overwrite Mode is a way to keep the next segment from being dragged in from the right if you manually drag a transition to the left from the corner. This is important because you don’t want to drag in all the segments from the right, messing up your track syncing!
    INSERTING SEGMENT FROM ANOTHER TRACK - You can manually drag it there, but sometimes the segment will slide underneath another segment and royally screw up your movie line. One way to work around this, is to cut the segment, move it to the end of its own track, THEN drag it up or down to the target track, at the end there, THEN cut and paste it at the desired spot in the target track. That way the segment will insert and move all the stuff to the right properly. If you simply cut from one track and try to paste onto another, it does not work. Segments get pasted onto the SAME track they came from, even if you have another target track highlighted with the orange line at far left.
    MAKING A COLOR SEGMENT BLACK AND WHITE - Right Click > Open Effects Editor > Effects > Color > Studio B&W > Settings > move slider all the way to the right > OK. (If you want to adjust it further, start over from scratch, inserting the segment again into your track, because the slider seems to get disabled after you make that first change.)
    BLACK SEGMENTS - NOW MORE IMPORTANT - Black segments are actually important. You want that extra black segment at the end of your movie because TH-cam now allows messages and links only at the END of your video, and you don’t want those to intrude ON TOP of your movie ending. To get a black segment, right-click the segment with any random video in it > Open Effects Editor > Effects > Color > Black Background. That makes that segment, on that track, black. Or, what I do, is just stick random music into the spot and lower the volume to zero. That will hold a black segment for you as long as there is no material on another track at that position.
    POP-UP WINDOW GETS IN THE WAY - Often, when you want to drag a volume up or down in the timeline, the white pop-up window for that segment, annoyingly gets right in the way. Solution - approach the spot with your pointer FROM BELOW, rather than above. Then the window pops up below the spot instead of right on the spot.
    Again, I am not an expert; anything I’ve said could be wrong. But this has been my experience with Studio 19. Good luck. It ain’t easy. Things are always going wrong, but as you get more experienced, things go wrong less often. 11/18/18

    Will done Sir, but I have question, why it didn't show in the timeline when I put my video clip at the A/V track? Thank you!

    • @2994485
      @2994485  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks. Can't tell why. Not sure what you mean. The timeline IS the A/V track (the timeline is composed of all the tracks and each track can be either video or audio). Any clip you drag, or right-click and "Send to Timeline," should land in the chosen or highlighted track. Remember that for video, only the top track shows; the ones underneath do not show when you play your timeline. (For audio all tracks are heard). Good luck.

    • @sproutingfaith
      @sproutingfaith 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Sir Miklos! Yes sir, the timeline is where the A/V tracks will be seen for editing but my problem is nothing will be seen even though I drag video clip already in A/V track. Thank you once again Sir!

    Excellent tutorial, does not ramble on or too fast. Being new to editing found very useful and I hope to improve at the job. Still working in version 10 have jet to start using ver.20 - Looks rather complicated at present. Been about 10 years since buying older version and then only used it about twice, hence lots of catching up to do. Gerald

    Miklos, your tutorial is one of the best I've seen for Studio. I was very interested in the part where you show how to avoid multiple rendering by making short movies and eventually put them together. So, I used your method and got a surprised, I was able to combine a few movies but then, for the following ones, PS24 crashed without any message. I can't figure why and I'm wondering if you experienced anything like that. Thanks, Claude

    I bought a MINI-DV cam back in the 90's. I bought Studio 4 for use on my Pentium 3! PC. It barely worked. Later (2 years?) got Studio 7 which was a huge improvement. Now have bought a drone and am looking at video editing software again. Had forgotten about Pinnacle. Had to laugh to see that they are up to version 22 While there are enhancements to most everything, the work space and editing workflow from 7 is not that different from 22. I may have to get a version. Question: Why is Cyberlink PowerDirector 16 so widely acclaimed?

  • @BladeJones
    @BladeJones 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does Pinnacle Studio 22 Ultimate support 3rd party video effect plugins? Does it support videos with alpha channels, for example if I have a title designed in After Effects that I want to put over a video track? And can you apply an "easy ease" (like in After Effects for gradual transitions) to effects? 47:42 I don't get what you did differently. Whenever you render video there is going to be quality degradation unless you render it uncompressed. How is rendering chunks in a different folder going to change anything?

    • @2994485
      @2994485  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m not especially familiar with the various versions, but my impression is that the basic version is fine, because it’s such a capable (though buggy) program anyway. No need for the super fancy stuff, unless videos are what you do for a living.

    @blakstar64 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love this video. Helped me a lot. But one question I have for you is about that processing line that changes from tan to green. Do you basically ignore that as you are working and allow it to finish on it's own? I ask because a lot of the time I get that progress bar stopping. Thanks again for you video!

    • @blakstar64
      @blakstar64 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @2994485
      @2994485  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks. Glad it’s helpful. I usually can’t afford the time to be a help site, but I’ll say this about your question - I usually wait for the color to change fully before continuing to work, just to play it safe. Though, when I don’t wait and continue editing, it tends to work works fine anyway. The more important or complex the movie is, the more I play it safe. I haven’t had the processing line stop completely. Sometimes it goes slowly, sometimes it skips around from one segment to some other segment, outside of the current screen view. All kinds of weird stuff happens. If it’s a problem, often saving, closing, and re-opening the program clears it up.
