reprinted from a MAGIX press release:

BERLIN / MIAMI, FL — April 1, 2008 – MAGIX Entertainment Corp., a leading developer of software, online services and digital content, today announced the availability of Movie Edit Pro 14 and Movie Edit Pro
14 PLUS, the two latest versions of their award-winning video editing software title Movie Edit Pro. This latest release is available in two
versions: MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 14, which is a complete video editing solution for consumers, and MAGIX Movie Edit Pro 14 PLUS, which includes additional, professional-level functionality and features. Both versions are available at top retailers, online partners and directly from the MAGIX website at http://www.magix.com/us/movie-edit-pro/ where interested users may also download a free 30-day trial of the PLUS version.

High-Def in every possible way

With both versions, High-resolution video material can be edited, uploaded and burned to Blu-ray Discs(tm). Beyond this, MAGIX also offers Movie Edit Pro 14 PLUS as a full HD video editing and DVD authoring software, including support for the latest AVCHD format, which provides users with the necessary control to bring high-definition sharpness to the big screen. AVCHD is a comprehensive digital standard for recording audio and video in clearly defined compression formats. Today’s new AVCHD camcorders use the MPEG-4 video format for high-resolution images and Movie Edit Pro supports outputting of content onto various storage media including hard drives, memory cards and DVD. Finished video productions can then be viewed in full HD quality using, for example, any Blu-ray player.

“It is always our goal at MAGIX, to offer our customers the latest cutting edge technologies in easy-to-use integrated video editing and authoring software,” says Markus Gunn, Vice President of Sales & Marketing of North America. “HD editing in all its facets is of significant interest to video enthusiasts and I am pleased that with this newest release MAGIX has made Movie Edit Pro 14 PLUS available with support for Blu-ray and AVCHD, giving consumers the ability to create Hollywood-quality, high-definition videos.”
