Download

[JFD]

Just purchased the VS10+ & PI11 bundle after looking at the trial download versions. I am completely new to this so be gentle, I'm guessing I'll get a smarter response here than at support.

The download for VS10+ has three large files and I was only expecting one - VS10+/Content Pack/Bonus Pack. Presumably all three should be downloaded? What is in 'Content' and 'Bonus'?

Hi JFD, and welcome to the forums..

I am completely new to this so be gentle

You want us to be gentle?, Unless you've already had a good look around, this is one rough, tough forum, not for the weak of heart... just kidding.

Yes all 3 should be downloaded. Of course the VS10+ is the main program. the Extra Content has DVD Menus, transitions, filters, audio, smartsound, and samples. The Bonus should be the 6 month freebie to post your videos online. So that's personal preference if you want to try it out...

A quick tip:

While installing try to disable antivirus, spyware and firewall applications. This will allow the installer to not be interfered with. You might want to make sure your firmware for DVD burners, video cards, and capture devices are up to date too.

Many thanks; I knew this was the place to come.
I was a little surprised at the size of the other files - 298MB for Content and 240MB for Bonus against 134MB for VS10+.

Glad to help John..

Yes Ulead chops up their downloads a little weird. The small size of the main program is a good indication that is the "bare-bones", and most of the neato stuff is in the other (extra content) file.
