I've just purchased the upgrade of VideoStudio Ultimate X7 through the Corel site using a coupon code for a very nice discount. My choice now is whether to install the 32-bit or 64-bit version.
I've read a number of messages in this forum from users who were disappointed by some deficiency or another in the 64-bit version. My question is: Are there any actual happy users of the 64-bit version reading this board?
I realize that my experience may vary from other users, but I'd be wise just to install the 32-bit version if no one has yet had a positive experience with the 64-bit version.
Sincere Thanks in advance for your invaluable input,
Bob Bell

Maybe I've missed something, but I haven't seen any/many posts distinctly complaining about 64bit.
I'm happily using it with windows 8.1.

Re: Any Happy Users of 64-bit VideoStudio Ultimate X7?
I'll go with that. My version of X7 is run on a Windows 7 64bit OpSys. and gives very little problem. I have had minor glitches which I have now overcome. Whether 64 bit X7 is faster I would debate but a 20 minute video = time for1 cup of tea to render. So IMO there is little wrong with the 64 bit version for what I want to do.
I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not so sure.

Re: Any Happy Users of 64-bit VideoStudio Ultimate X7?
I too would have to say the X7 x64 performs well on both Win 8.1 Pro and Win 7. I have read the threads concerning poor rendering times, and have to confess I have not run any tests of my own in this regard because I find nothing wrong with the rendering times for my own projects (either HDV or AVCHD these days, and occasionally a mix of the two). It may be that I am easily pleased or my projects aren't too complicated. But like Graham and Terfyn above, I find the program more than suitable for my needs.

Re: Any Happy Users of 64-bit VideoStudio Ultimate X7?
So far I have had no problems with the 64 bit version. My version of X7 Ultimate is run both on a Windows 7 64 bit desktop and a laptop with I7 series processors, NVidia graphic cards and have had no problems. How much faster 64 bit X7 is up for debate ...

Thanks,

Re: Any Happy Users of 64-bit VideoStudio Ultimate X7?
I have sent a PM to Barry that I hope answers his question about the current discount/sale on VS X7 Ultimate. I'll provide the same info to anyone who sends me a PM.
Sincere thanks to all of the forum members who have taken time to share their 64-bit VS X7 Ultimate experiences with me.
I will attempt to install 64-bit version on my PC and only downgrade to the 32-bit version if I have a horrible experience and it becomes absolutely necessary.
