'tis a BIG one: 23.2 megs

Enhancements:

Supports Ulead VideoStudio 8 project files. SmartSound in VideoStudio 8 project will be converted to silence audio clips.

New filters: Pan & Zoom and Duotone

New transition: Album

Support Recording Date/Time and display the arrangement. Production Library now supports extracting timecode from videos and audio/images from camcorders or digital cameras. Some camcorders and digital cameras may not record the media with recording date/time when using some specific settings. In this situation, the Production Library will not be able to show Recording Date/Time.

Supports VST audio plug-ins (Steinberg Cubase system).

Supports Auto Deinterlace. When creating a project using progressive scan and Auto Deinterlace is selected, all video fields will be automatically deinterlaced when creating the video file

MPEG-2 2-Pass Encoding option added. 2-Pass Encoding can be only be selected when you create a file; it is not an option for a project template (note: updates the MainConcept engine to the latest SDK, including support for DirectShow video capture hardware).

Bugs fixed:

Problem with Video Capture crashing when the video has more than 100 scenes was fixed

Changed Field Order A to Lower Field First and Field Order B to Upper Field First.

Problem of the video flickering at the end of a transition effect.

Video Capture sometimes stop when there are scene changes [For Ulead HD Plug-in only].

ADS Instant DVD II compatibility issue.

Print to Tape bug.

Problem with the background color always being black in a slide show was fixed.

In CG Infinity the problem of the object color changing when Moving Path is applied.

Problem with DV files with corrupted frames when created on a system with Hyper-Threading enabled.

Occasional synchronizing problems in Preview window.

DVD-NTSC template configures the video's frame type wrongly therefore causing video with Lower Field first to fail to Smart Render.

Audio synchronization problem when a PAL MPEG-1 video is converted to a NTSC DVD video.

Problem with the Field Order option being grayed out in some situations.

Image relink problem for Media Library

Auto-Deinterlace is now applied on the video during Create Video File, not during editing

Scan for Scenes bug

Problem with Video Capture only pre-scanning and capturing the first segment of video and ignoring the rest of the DV tape when the DV tape has duplicated timecodes

Known Issues:

Customized template settings (both in New project and Create Video File dialog boxes) of users will be archived and moved to another folder because the default template was updated. If you want to recover customized templates, follow the procedure below:

a. In < MediaStudio Pro 7 installation path > \Backup , open Data.log in Notepad

b. Check the the path that is written in Data.log

c. In the Backup folder, copy both prjtmpMPEG.dat and savetemp.dat to the path specified in Data.log. This will overwrite the new files that were installed with SP2 with the customized templates

When importing a VideoStudio 8 project with SmartSound audio clips, SmartSound audio clips will be imported as a silent audio track. Other audio clips can be imported without problems.

VST audio plug-in has to be put in a specific path to make it work. They must be placed in this path:< MediaStudio Pro root > \Ulead Systems\Ulead MediaStudio Pro 7.0\aft_plug\VST

There are more changes than Ulead has listed, so watch for posts on the unlisted changes. I'll likely be posting one to ABCDV.com in a few days.
