I got this to edit videos and this was a great price at $70, especially with the Best Buy exclusive I saw advertised, “PhotoDirector 9”. But I received a Screen Recorder program that I don’t want instead. So I took off one star for that. Even with that misinformation, this the PowerDirector program is what I wanted it for, so I’m happy. I love that they give you a digital code, for those who don’t have a CD slot.

I purchased this as a upgrade to a older version of this program I have been using for years. The program is one of the easiest video editing and creation programs that I have ever used. It has easy to use templates or you can create your own templates and menus. My only fault I find with the program is that it does not directly import Canon MXF files which is the format my camcorder saves in. This requires me to convert to another format and then import into Power Director.

I have been a Roxio user for many years but starting with NXT 5 and 7 I have been very frustrated with their product creating projects to be burned onto DVDs. I decided to give Power Director 17 a try and am very pleased with the product. Easy to learn and has a vast number of Tutorial videos available to help. I have created several projects and burnt them to DVD with no problem. Glad I made the switch.

This is the best Video Editor that I've ever used, very easy learning curve and it has everything you can think of to edit 4k video

Easy to follow editing process that allows detail with HD quality output
