Where can I find how to delete projects from pinnacle studio 22 ultimate so that all the cookies are deleted also ?
Hello Alan,
Did you want to delete the preview images of video files you used in the project from Pinnacle Studio? If so, just delete the source files or move them to an archive folder that Pinnacle Studio is not set to scan. The simplest way to do this is to create a new folder outside of your video folder and cut + paste the files there.
Hope this helps,

Hi there!
I have Pinnacle studio 20 and i would like to know how i can change the speed of a part of a clip. Thanks!
Hello Miran,
You can use the Time Remapping tools for that! With the clip you want to adjust selected, open the Editor in the top left and select “Time Remapping” on the rightmost end of the top row in the Editor view.

Have purchased Studio 22 Ultimate and am finding it difficult, cumbersome, and almost impossible to perform an Animated Ken Burns type pan and zoom effect on a still image especially when holding a zoom using the following example:
1) Still/photo image stretched out to a 45 second clip on the timeline
2) Pan and Zoom initiated zoomed in to the center of the photo/still image and held for 5 seconds.
3) After the zoom hold for 5 seconds, a 5 second duration pan across to the upper left of the still image with the same zoom value from the beginning of the P&Z.
4) After the 5 second Pan across, a 5 second hold at the upper left of the image again using the same zoom value from the beginning of the P&Z
5) After the 5 second hold at the upper left, an 8 second pan across to the upper right of the still image using the same zoom value for the beginning of the P&Z.
6) After the 8 second pan across to the upper right of the still image, a 5 second hold using the same zoom value from the beginning of the P&Z.
7) After the 5 second hold at the upper right, a 10 second zoom out to a full frame of the the still/photo image.
8) After the zoom out to the full frame still/photo image, a 5 second hold before a 2 second fade to black is applied.
The pan and zoom effect can be accomplished using unconventional techniques especially when attempting to hold a stable pan and zoom at all animated positions on the still image and it consumes approximately 4 or 5 hours for the example above. Using the example above, my experience is that 3 identical key frame values must be added one frame in succession in order to achieve a stable pan and zoom at each location.
The real question here is does Studio 22 not support Zoom Hold?
can you reverse clips
Hi Alex,
Here is a tutorial that shows you how to reverse a clip https://learn.corel.com/tutorials/pinnacle-adjusting-speed-with-time-remapping/

Hola, acabo de comprar e instalar el Pinacle Estudio 22, y mi pregunta es la siguiente:
Porque no me aparece el Audio Ducking en la barra de tareas, en el Pinacle Estudio 22 ? gracias..
Hello Manuel,
Which version of Pinnacle Studio 22 do you have? Audio Ducking is included in the Pro and Ultimate packages, but is not included in the standard package.

Ik gebruik al jaren Pinnacle en heb nu studio 20 en corrigeer altijd het volume van het geluid handmatig zodat het geluid i=onder film even hard is.
Ik zie nu dat studio 22 een GAIN functie heeft kan je daar nu mee het geluidsvolume automatisch corrigeren. Ik kan hiervan namelijk nergens een goede beschrijving van vinden hoe het precies werk.
I have been using Pinnacle for years and now have studio 20 and always correct the volume of the sound manually so that the sound under film is just as loud.
I now see that studio 22 has a GAIN function, you can now use it to correct the sound volume automatically. I cannot find a good description of how it works exactly.
Doresc manual de utilizare pentru Pinnacle Studio 22.
Hello Liviu,
Thank you for getting in touch! While we do not currently include Romanian in our supported languages, we appreciate the feedback and have passed your comments on to the Pinnacle team for their consideration.

Does any one know if you can achieve good quality mp4 files with 50fps video from GoPro footage native with pinnacle 22?
why are there no audio controls showing in 22?
Hello Clive,
You can access the Audio Editor by selecting the Editor panel in the top left (next to Library), and then selecting the music icon (just below the Library button). This will switch that entire panel over to Pinnacle’s audio tools.
Hope this helps,

I am wanting to put an additional clip at the very front of an already created movie. How do I do that without having to make numerous changes on the timeline?
Hello Pat,
All you need to do is set the Editing mode to Insert! This can be done using the dropdown in the top right of the timeline. By default it is set to Smart Editing, meaning Pinnacle Studio will make some editing decisions based on how it sees your behaviour when you add or move clips. This can do the same thing as the Insert function if the Smart Editor thinks that is what you want, but to be safe you can switch to the Insert mode. Once there, any videos you add will shove everything to the right of them down, making room for the new clip. For a more complete explanation, check out our How to Use Different Editing Modes tutorial!
Hope this helps,

Io non conosco l´inglese, ho comprato da poco Pinnacle Studio 22 in italiano, ma non sono riuscito a trovare un manuale utente in italiano ne da internet ne dal sito di Pinnacle. Come devo fare? Mi dareste, gentilmente, delle indicazioni su come procurarmi un manuale in italiano?
Grazie.

Is er een support voor RAW files (CR2) of moeten die eerst geconverteerd worden en zo ja wat wordt in dat geval aangeraden?
Hello Bollestan,
Pinnacle Studio does not currently support the CR2 RAW format (or any raw image formats for that matter). There are many editing programs that can convert RAW files, including our own AfterShot and PaintShop programs. For reference, Pinnacle Studio 22 supports the following image formats: JPS, BMP, GIF, JPG, PCX, PSD, TGA, TIF, WMF, PNG, J2K
Hope this helps!

Gostaria de saber se o Pinnacle 22 aceita importar arquivos no Formato MOV?
Hello Bruno,
Yes! Pinnacle 22 supports the MOV file format, using the DV, MPEG-4, and H.264 codecs.
Discovery Center Team
Boa tarde! E como faço para obter os codecs citados e como faço para instalar esses codecs no Pinnacle 22 ultimate?
Obrigado!
Hello Dario,
Not a problem! Installing codecs is a bit like installing fonts. When you install a codec pack on your computer, most video playback and editing software – Pinnacle included – will detect and use the new codec.

Hello,
I have Pinnacle 20, would I be able to read Pinnacle 20 projects in Pinnacle 22?
Hello Jean-Michel,
Yes! Pinnacle 22 can open Pinnacle 20 projects, meaning you can pick up your editing right where you left off with all the new features in Pinnacle 22.

I just downloaded Studio 22 Standard and I am unable to find the Motions button in the Title Editor. Only the Looks button, but no Motion button. I am not able to scroll credits.
Hello Ken,
Advanced editing features (such as Motion Titles, Volume Keyframing, Detaching Audio, and Audio Ducking) are only available in the Plus or Ultimate versions of Pinnacle Studio 22. Here is a link to the comparison chart for more information on the differences.

Hi there,
I have just purchased a GoPro Fusion, how do I us the Fusion footage from the two SD cards in Pinnacle Studio 22 Ultimate?
Hello Trevor,
We would suggest using the included Fusion Studio app to transfer the video files to your PC, which will also let you stitch the files on the camera into a video file ready for editing. Once they are on your computer, just import them into Pinnacle Studio and you’re ready to go!
We love GoPro cameras (hope you’re enjoying your new Fusion!), but since we don’t make them, if you run into more trouble with the Fusion itself we’d have to point you at the GoPro Fusion Manual.
Hope this helps,

Hoe kom ik aan een Backup DVD van Pinnacle Studio Ultimate 22 welke ik gedownload heb?
