Amazon.com Review:
MGI's VideoWave 3.0 is a solid editing package that harnesses the power of today's digital video (DV) systems and wraps it up in an interface that is easy to grasp, yet has plenty of options. It is designed for the beginning editor and hobbyist, and features a straightforward, drag-and-drop interface. It is optimized for use with a computer equipped with a IEEE-1394 (FireWire) interface, although it will use whatever video capture card is installed.

Editing is quick and easy. Files are imported into a project window and trimmed (i.e., made shorter by cutting part of the beginning and part of the ending of a clip), then added to a storyline. Transitions like wipes and dissolves can be added between clips, as well as five additional soundtracks.

VideoWave can import and export almost every imaginable file type, making it an excellent conversion utility. The standard movie formats are all supported: Quicktime, AVI, and MPEG. However, it's not limited to importing movie files--VideoWave will happily accept still image files like JPEG, TIFF, TGA, and Photoshop PSD files, to name a few. Especially nice is the ability to import Kodak PhotoCD images. This ability to import still graphics, along with WAV sound files, makes VideoWave a handy tool for creating slide shows with transitions and soundtracks.

Editing video on a computer used to be a complex task involving expensive and obtuse software and hardware, but next-generation computers, inexpensive digital video cameras, and powerful, affordable editing software are changing the landscape of video production and laying waste to old methods. --Mike Caputo

- For the right system, excellent for the money
I bought a copy for $10 several years ago to give to my son who was about 12 years old at the time. I didn't have to help him very much at all and he was mixing his own animated cartoons with clips of himself and friends using our old camcorder, mixing the Simpsons with The Matrix, mixing in different sound clips, etc.

For $10 at that time, the ability to produce MPEG2 along with other types of video (which allowed my son to enter a contest for short clips for TV) was pretty impressive ... Read More

- Stay away from this piece of [garbage] at all costs...
Put nicely, Videosuite 3.0 is terrible. It took me a couple days to figure out how to bring in video (MGI is so smart that they don't include an instruction manual with the software). After I finally had to have a computer-expert friend come over and make the thing work, it made me want to cry. The process of puting clips together is basically impossible, and adding music...forget about it. All I wanted was a little program to help me get started in making skate videos. Usually, when software falls ... Read More

- Good With the Right Hardware
I have used all of the versions of Video Wave and I even have Version 4.0. I've also used the Ulead products and the Home Video from Canon.

Video Wave III works, if your pc is configured for it. It has a limited number of video cards with which it works well. It doesn't seem to like AMD processors as much as it does Pentium III's.

The instructions are almost useless and you can get four very different sets of instructions from their technical support people if you call with the same ... Read More

- Enjoyable, fun and easy.
Originally bought this to upgrade VideoWave SE that came with my Iomega Buz analog capture card. Unfortunately it was not compatible with the hardware. Well my analog camcorder died and I ugraded to a Sony digital 8 and a firewire card. Have been using 3.0 now for 4 months making home videos and the familiar interface from SE has been added plus. Haven't had time to dig too deep into this program but for making quick home movies, it is easy to use if you at least take a quick look at the instructions or use ... Read More

- a good quality product
this product is great, with a few glitches. i like the interface once you get used to it. i noticed that after producing videos, transitions have a bit of a 'hiccup' when the transitions start and end. my system is custom built with 256 mb ram and an athlon 650, and a quantum fireball 7200 rpm hard drive, so i know its not the hardware. my biggest problems however, have to do with interfacing the computer with my jvc cam. the dv capture works perfectly, but exporting the finished product to the cam can prove ...
