Is Corel Discontinuing DVD Movie Factory?

Post by tyamada »

I'm not sure if there is anything to it but Corel Web Store no longer lists any version of DVD Movie Factory. May be they are going to discontinue it in favor of Video Studio X3 and Corel Digital Studio 2010.

That is probably why Corel never released DVD Movie Factory 7 in the UK or the US.

They do not tell us and when I pointed out to Corel the fact that various versions of their software were "out of date" on certain Corel on line Stores I was told to keep my nose out of their marketing decisions.

Yes I to did not have much help with a problem on MOVIE FACTORY 7 PRO the only reply was to Re install Re install
I also have Studio from them and they where more than helpful in answering problems with this software
I live in the UK and they say there is no UK support for Movie Factory
This forum has been a lot more help with problems on Movie Factory

I missed that, it's under DVD authoring. Looks like Corel is trying to get rid of its stocks of Movie Factory 6 with the sale.

I'm sure they are, however if you noticed MSP8 is still there and has survived now for about a year. All the other Ulead brands, such as Cool 3D, GIF Animator, DVDWS2, have completely vanished, got sucked down the Corel toilet bowl..

It`s a good thing then, that I trusted my instict and kept my Installation
CD for DVD Movie Factory 6 Plus as well as the HD Power Pack. Photo
Impact goes to hell as well as Cool 3D, and VideoStudio Pro X3 turns
up with a cartoonish DVD - Blu-ray authoring component that
causes confusion. I am seriously tempted to start flirting with the
idea of buying Adobe`s Creative Suite as soon as a 64-bit version
becomes available. Video, photo, vecrtor-graphics, sound and
visual effects and motion graphics editing and creation ONCE AND
FOR ALL available and guaranteed, without fear of something getting
"dropped", "abandoned", discontinued.
Good guys always win
