Movie Edit Pro 2013 Ideal minimum requirements.

I've had Movie Edit Pro 2013 after upgrading from DVD 7 which I was reasonably satisfied with for some time now and to be quite honest am really disatisfied with the functioning of playback, missed frames, juddering, impossibility of amending sound levels although to be fair that option doesn't seem to make any difference anyway, edit and the final video result. I will be kind and assume its some sort of weakness with my computer and not with the software, although I have tried on several different spec computers with excactly the same problems showing themselves. What I would like to know is what are the 'minimum hardware requirements' to run the application. Thank you.

Hi

Th minimum harware requirements are literally the minimum needed fr the program to run and be useable (this is asubjective point ).

My computer is as follows:

Windows 8 64bit on Intel i5-4670K 3.4 GHz, Gigabyte Z87-D3HP M/B,16Gb Ballistix RAM, 1Tb +2Tb SATA 6 HDD + 60Gb SSD. 

OS and programs on drive 1, Projects, Video and other resources on drive 2, SSD drive for rendering to from drive 2.  With this I can render / export HD mp4 at 43 - 52 fps from HD AVCHD video and still images depending on the complexity of the project.

ajer12,

The minimum and recommended system requirements are outlined on the Magix site -- go to 'more information' and then 'specifications': http://www.magix.com/gb/movie-edit-pro/plus/system-requirements/

That said, there are of course additional factors like the format of the video you are editing and the complexity of your project eg transitions and special effects. I'm just now trialing MEP 2014 which introduces 'proxy' editing and it certainly makes a big difference on my old 3 GHz Core 2 Duo machine.

I don't understand your problem with amending sound levels. A right click on an audio object brings up a menu where you can select a volume curve for the object and adjust as you like:
