Corel VideoStudio by Erol Esen

Core VisualStudio Ultimate X9 has improved the one tool better than anyone else: Corel ScreenCap X9. In this version, you can record both the system sound, as well as your voice from the computer microphone. I couldn’t do this with X7 version. Never used X8, so I can’t comment on it.

This is where the good news ends. The main program, Corel VideoStudio X9, has major flaws in audio filtering. The produced AVI is garbled, not so in the editor. Moreover, it doesn’t have the capability to import CyberLink PowerDirector project files. It also doesn’t seem to take full advantage of i7 and fast GPU for rendering.

If it wasn’t for the extraordinary quality of the ScreenCap tool I would give this product a single star.
