With decent basic tools built right into Windows 7, you don't have to look too far to perform casual video editing if you're bound to a PC. But if you work in media or Web-site production, or are the serious go-to person for your entire brood's vacation and event videos, a stiffer solution is in order. Midrange consumer-grade video-editing packages will work for many, but pro-grade programs like Adobe Premiere and Sony Vegas Pro are all that will do for folks for whom time spent processing frame ( Read More)

Some software upgrades are about flashy new interfaces and sexy new features, and others have more to do with supercharging the engine under the hood in order to boost the overall performance. This past year, video editing tools have been working on the flashy side with support for working with 3D video, but the real focus has continued to be on the machinery - taking advantage of today's 64-bit architectures to work ( Read More)
