Designed with a variety of new features that enhance the movie making process for prosumers, PowerDirector 10 is the fastest consumer video editing software on the market and includes innovative new editing tools, features and enhancements, in addition to the most comprehensive 3D editing suite, making it easy and fun to create high quality home movies.
Users will welcome several new features, including a choice of 3 different editing modes, enhancements to a flexible 100-track timeline, automated beat detection, integration of pro-quality plug-ins from third-party partners, animated painting tools, time lapse controls and free-form picture-in-picture video cropping tools.

"Serious video hobbyists want more capabilities than simple tools or cameras can supply but don't want to spend an arm and a leg for a professional solution nor do they want to spend weeks learning it", said Rob Enderle, Principal Analyst for the Enderle Group. "PowerDirector 10 from CyberLink addresses this need with a comparatively easy to use set of tools that still provides professional level features. In short, with PowerDirector 10, they get the result of a professional tool without the cost in cash or time."

Chang, CEO of CyberLink. "The new 3D capabilities allow users to take any 2D photo or video and easily convert it to 3D.
