I'll dig into what's new in more detail, but for shorter attention spans, the company summarizes it in four bullet points: What's New? I'm always happy to see a newly improved application, but for a product with as many difficulties as Movie Studio evidenced in my past testing, I'd hope for more than what Sony gave us this time around. But to run the program, I had to enter the longest serial number I've ever entered. Happily the installer doesn't try to load unrelated software such as browser toolbars onto your system, as is all too common, surprising as it is for software that costs nearly 100 bucks. On first run, a message window told me that the installer program requires administrator privileges to run, so a UAC dialog had to be OKed. I tested on a 3.4GHz AMD quad core Windows 7 Ultimate PC with 4GB RAM and an ATI Radeon HD 4290 graphics adapter-not state of the art, but not too shabby. That's still a bit less than the 1.4GB used by CyberLink PowerDirector 11 ($99.95 list, 4.5 stars), our Editors' Choice consumer video editor. Setup took just 2 minutes, and like most full-feature video editors, it took up a good chunk of disk space-over 1GB for the program plus its disc-authoring companion program.

You can choose whether you want to install DVD Architect for disc authoring along with the video editing software.

A pleasant wizard takes you through the process. Installation You can install Movie Studio in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Vista-no XP, no Mac! It's now a 64-bit app, which helps with performance when keeping a lot of large video footage in memory.
