Conclusion

During the testing of this software, a few positive and negative points came up:

  • Easy to edit and use menu templates
  • Good help file
  • Supports most media formats
  • Easy to use import from devices such as TV cards and Video Cameras

Conclusion:

Let’s summarize the positive and negative aspects of the application below.

Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5 Plus is an excellent all in one Disc Authoring and Burning Suite and supports almost every video and audio file format currently used. During our review, we found it was easy to navigate our way around and find the options we needed. The help file is also easy to understand.

The Authoring and Editing tools proved to do a good job and were very simple to use. In no time at all we were recording from TV, zapping out the commercials and editing our recording with ease. Then a few clicks later and our DVD was burned, it really doesn’t get much easier.

An additional advantage of this application is the ability to create high-definition video discs. We managed to create a Blu-ray video disc without any problem and play it back with the included Intervideo WinDVD 7.

One small issue we will address with Ulead is the inability to create LightScribe disc labelling.

To sum it up, this is what we would say: “Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5 Plus is a solid all in one Disc Authoring and Burning suite with excellent features and support. The ability to make high-definition video discs, makes it stand out from other video authoring applications.

Ulead DVD Movie Factory 5 Plus can be purchased from Ulead website for $79.99.

Based on our test during this review, we therefore award Ulead DVD MovieFactory 5 Plus with our CDFreaks ‘Safe Buy’ award.

I always wanted the Conclusion page to be the first. Saves time.

Thanks for that CDFreaks.com

This change is welcome.
This is a pretty good review-- I can tell the software seems much more usable than previous versions. But could you compare it to other programs? Is it better than Nero, for instance?
