It’s also possible to multitrim a video file, choosing more than one in and out point. The project is now saved automatically at regular user-configurable intervals. Ripple editing is supported too, so dragging a clip between two others will move the later one along. A slider is available to augment the timeline zoom buttons. There are a couple of useful interface enhancements. Keying control is pretty minimal, with just a colour picker and a similarity slider to fine-tune the key, but the results are perfectly adequate. However, with Pinnacle Studio Plus 9 now offering blue-screen effects, it was high time it followed suit. VideoStudio has long had an extra video track, so its lack of keying support has been a curious omission. The main editing app hasn’t changed much in appearance, although it offers a number of new effects: in particular, chroma keying. However, you can’t save the batch-capture list created by the Tape Scanning tool, so you have to start anew each time, even with the same footage. It’s a handy tool for quickly transferring video to optical if you don’t want to do any editing yourself.

The software automatically captures all your chosen clips to a temporary folder, creates the file structure for the finished video and burns it straight to disc. You then choose the clips you want to include, select a menu theme from a variety of presets, specify the video quality and hit Burn. First, it scans your tape, detecting any clips automatically, at 1x, 2x or maximum, which amounts to about 6x normal tape speed (this feature is also available in the main editing app’s Capture tool). This takes you from tape to Video-CD or DVD in a couple of steps. The opening splash screen now gives you three choices instead of two the additional option is the new DV-to-DVD Wizard.
