Yeah, VideoStudio 11 is now available, but forget it if you use ADS DVD Xpress DX2, and maybe were used to using the bundled version of VideoStudio that came with that hardware.
Apparently ADS tweaks the VS it gives you, and upgraded versions just don't work with their equipment.
See post at: http://phpbb.ulead.com.tw/EN/viewtopic. ... 498#118498
ADS should at least tell you this, so that you can forget about their "special" version of VS and just go directly to Roxio or Nero for a good solid capture & edit program that you CAN upgrade in the future.
This really sucks!!
I got caught in this trap, and had to ask for my money back for the VideoStudio 11Plus that I bought because I foolishly thought I could just upgrade the VS 9 that came with DVD Xpress unit.
ADS DVD Xpress DX2 incompatible with upgraded VideoStudio

Well, you can always capture with the software which came with the Ads device. In fact, we usually recommend you use the Adstech proprietary software CapWiz for capture, rather than even the tweaked VS9.
Once you have captured the video, you can happily open and edit in whatever version of VS you choose.
And if you are worried about using two different programs, lots of us here on this forum use at least two, and often 3 or more programs for any project. For instance, I commonly capture DV with a program called WinDV, editing in VS, add titles produced in either Cool 3D Production Studio or Xara 3D, occasionally add effects using Adobe AfterEffects, and actually produce my DVD using Movie Factory or DVD Workshop (or rarely, Nero). The more you get into video editing, the more you see that strong and weak points of a wide variety of programs, and learn to capitalise on all the strong points of each.
