My Premiering YouTube Video

[Cypherdude]

Hello,
I have uploaded my first YouTube video. It is also my first VideoStudio X6 project. My YouTube video is 73 minutes, the longest I have ever created:
How to Install Your New SSD into an Active Windows.

I used VS X6 to assemble and enhance it. I used numerous transitions, opening and ending moving credits & music, blurring, subtitles, and multi-trim. I don't expect anyone to see the whole video. See the first and last 2 minutes. Even though VS X6 Ultimate didn't use CUDA, it was still fun to use. Despite my working with a lot of different elements, VS X6 never crashed or gave me a BSOD. After I added the transitions, there were times VS X6 would freeze for 3 seconds but then continue. I plan to buy VS X7 SP1 on Cyber Monday 2014. I will probably always upgrade VideoStudio every Cyber Monday.

If anyone from Corel reads this, I was unable to make VideoStudio X6 utilize CUDA for my Fermi-based GTX 460 SE. I tried for 10 days but I was not successful. I have a mixed system with a GTX 460 SE and an NVS 450. I assume I must upgrade to 2 matching 700 series Kepler-based cards.

VS X6 has a few problems:
1. If you have subtitles and use Multi-Trim, it throws off the timing of all the subtitles after the cut. Please fix this ASAP.
2. Your Motion Tracking for blurring is pretty good but could be better.
3. The up-to-down "Moving Path" attribute I used on my final title needs improvement. I was unable to make it pause. I was unable to even adjust the pause because if I did, it would completely throw off the timing. I wanted to pause the final up-to-down "Moving Path" title for 3 seconds at the bottom of the screen and then have it move down and off. Please fix the "Moving Path" motion attributes for your titles.

Otherwise, your VideoStudio X6 worked pretty good. Your sound mixer feature was pretty cool. All of my notes here and in my video were written using Corel WordPerfect X5. IMHO, WP is the best word processor ever written.

Thanks for that and your comments -- though as I think you know, Corel execs rarely if ever visit this forum, and if they do, then to look only at the Wishlist thread.

When you have future projects you want to post a link to here, please bear in mind there is a separate forum for Members' Samples: http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewforum.php?f=45
