The worst Product I ever bought!

1. I can only post in the US Forum. WTF?! How the heck? I'm in Germany!

2. No way to see what time of the video I'm on (unless I zoom in to max)

3. No way to change the source of an Image or Video Object.

4. 2018 Version or Video Deluxe Premium perfectly demonstrates how to completely fail at making Software (same Project working perfectly fine in 2014 Version takes 4 times longer to render and fails to render a preview on Windows10.)

5. You spent an unbelievable long amount of time rendering a 4 Minute Video in standard HD (promise was increased rendering performance!)

6. I have to reload the project just to see seamless previews of the to be imported files.

7. I have to reconnect my monitor just for the purpose of rendering on GPU.

8. I have to extra-click on any parameter I want to be keyed (without default value changed)

9. I have been wasting so much time on this software without getting the expected result.

10. @magix : Please stop producing Software, it's not Your thing....

You can always set the forums you want to see in your Profile settings, at least on my profile. Fastest way to get to that page is to click on the "Posts from" gear icon (highlighted on attached screen shot). Guess you could ask from Q2 onward there.

I apologize for my rant. One should always have a good night sleep when angry before complaining.

Yet, things mentioned are still true for me (maybe with less harsh wording).

@Florian-Wilhelm

Under the Product heading you chose "Other Products", but your post refers to Video Deluxe Premium 2018, otherwise known to English speakers as Movie Edit Pro Premium.

However, apart from rather bald statements about what you allege you cannot do, it would be very difficult for other users to suggest solutions to you; you do need to remember this is a user-to-user forum, NOT Magix Support.

I think, to avoid the possibility that this thread becomes one that is only "bashing Magix", I will close it here.

However, please feel free to start another thread with FULL DETAILS of your computer, the exact version of VDL which you have and precise details of the problems you are experiencing; with that level of detail it is entirely possible that one of we fellow-users may well be able to offer suggestions to you.
