I use Pinnacle Studio 16 plus.
Someone said that Pinnacle Studio 17 plus does Not allow Blu-ray authoring.
Reading the Specifications here...

http://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/upgrade/studio/specifications.html

it says.. Export Formats

• AVCHD™, BD Blu-ray™, DVD (DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW, dual layer); 3D: DVD, AVCHD™, AVCHD2 (incl. MVC), Blu-ray™

I need some clarification here.

No Blu-ray in 17 plus would surly be a step backward..

 

Click on the 'Compare' tab in your link, it blue ray disk authoring is only available in the Ultimate version.

So do the moderators - who have asked Pinnacle and not yet had a reply....

Yes, that "Compare" sheet is correct.  The features were updated for Studio 17, and Blu-Ray was removed from Plus version.  I tend to agree that such a change is similar to introducing a bug - in that it's a regression from previous version.  But, if it were up to me, I'd be giving a lot more away.  

Sorry for the bad news.

.......................and - the biggest regression is S17 Standard prominently displayed on Pinnacle Home Page Banner Advert

I would have thought that Corel would have taken note of the criticisms Posted on the Forum regarding S16 Standard & discontinued it. Apparently not

"You can fool some of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time", applies here.

BTW - I believe there's a Corel statement, stating that PS 17 is for Semi-Pros & Pros. Recommending Corel Video Studio for Beginners. Not S17, as per the Advert.
