6.2 Vista Compatible
PLEASANTON,
Calif., September 17, 2007 -
Interactive Solutions, Inc. today announced that a Universal
binary version of MediaWorks (formerly MovieWorks Deluxe)
is now available. In addition to running natively on Intel-based
Macintosh computers, there have been over 100 minor improvements
and bug fixes to the Macintosh version of MediaWorks Author
including new menu options to export to iPhone
and AppleTV®. The Macintosh
version of MediaWorks Animator now supports drag and drop
of multiple files, free rotation and has a new checkbox
to show an outline of the previous frame.
The Windows version of MediaWorks
has been updated to run on Vista, and the Help system
has been significantly improved on both the Macintosh
and Windows versions. A new Getting
Started document is also now available as well as
15-day
Trial versions. The update
is free for registered customers of version 6.0 or higher.
Educational
Lab Pack upgrades prior to 6.0 are available for 50%
of the SRP.
"We
are very excited that MediaWorks is now optimized for
the latest Operating Systems and computers, says
Bill LaCommare, President, Interactive Solutions, Inc.
In addition to running three times faster on Intel-based
Macintosh computers, the numerous other improvements we've
made make this a 'must have' update for anyone using the
Mac version or for anyone running Vista. If you're using
other consumer-level multimedia software products, and
are looking for the 'next step' without breaking the bank,
MediaWorks is a product that should be strongly considered!"
"MediaWorks
offers more creative flexibiliy with unlimited layers
and timing control than other low-end multimedia movie,
slide show and presentation programs, without the learning
curve and expense of high-end multimedia authoring and
movie editing programs", says David
Hentschel legendary record producer for Elton John,
Genesis and many others. "Now that it runs natively
on Intel-based Macs, I will be able to create interactive
DVD-ROMs like the one I just finished using MediaWorks
in even less time! I had a lot of fun using MediaWorks,
and was very pleased with the final results, so I agreed
to be part of a MediaWorks'
success story that is featured on their website!"

editors with a powerful multimedia authoring program.
