Summary: Good Overall
Comment: A good product overall. Exclellent features, especially preview and scanning of clips which can be shaky with similar products. It was not running well to begin with, though. I called tech support and it seems I had a problem with my WinTV card competing for the same codec. But the tech support guided me through the solution quicky and with great expertise. 5 stars for tech support (located in Oregon, not Calcutta or Hong Kong!)
Now it's working very well. But 4 stars vs. 5 as it's a little weak on menu creation. I am running on a 2.4 GHz computer, 1 GB RAM and 3 hard drives (1 for the OS and product install, 1 small drive reserved for temporary scratch data which makes it run much faster and the other for the imported videos)

Summary: Breaks Adobe Bridge
Comment: Installing this product breaks Adobe Bridge CS2, and there is no easy work around. In fact, the only workaround is to install Adobe Bridge on a second computer, copy some files, and uninstall. Yuk.

Note that the first of the two solutions probably won't work for you, since that's my experience, as well as the experience of most of the people commenting in forums. So, to fix your computer, you'll need a second computer.

Upshot: if you own Adobe CS2, avoid this program. Actually, given my experience with this steaming pile of code, I'd just avoid this program, period.

Summary: Stay Away
Comment: I bought this for Adobe name and my new desktop with Vista.

This product is difficult to learn.

I went back to Sony Vegas. I could not find the CD but was able to download. They even had saved my registration.

Sony Vegas has excellent tutorial. They walk you through the process interactively.

Summary: Did Not Meet Expectations
Comment: I wished that I had more carefully reviewed other users' comments before purchasing this software. The work space is very dark. Icons for Volume, Soundtrack, etc. do not contrast well with the dark work area, making them difficult to see. Also the selection tool puts a dark blue outline around selected movie clips, which does not contrast well with the dark background, thus making it difficult to see what has been selected. Such decisions by the software developers who designed this software are incomprehensible. Finally, I purchased this software to burn VCDs & SVCDs. This software will not burn VCDs or SVCDs.

Summary: Upgrade, or die of stress!
Comment: If all these naysayers are serious about video editing they should spend the extra money, avoid the crashes and heartaches, have access to good tech support and BUY ADOBE PREMIERE PRO CS3! Elements is, was and will always be just a consumer level toy that will not handle complex tasks and in truth was never designed to do so. If you have paid top dollar for a High Definition videocamera it is ridiculous to assume that this level of software can deal with that much information successfully. Spend the dough and add years to your life - free of stress!
