Hi :) I bought few plugins from PFS and I think they have lots of different plugins. My favourite is the Provolumetric. I heard PFS was reported for potentially "stealing" effects from motionvfx? I dont really know about that because I am only new to final cut pro x and still practice my editing skills. Anyway, I am just wondering if anyone in this forum using plugins from PFS and is it true their plugins can only be used for three computers? Thanks :)

Thanks for the reply. :) Would you mind me asking what complaint you had in the past? Because they seem to ok to me. The plugins I purchased from them look nice and they even have live support on their web and I asked them for help before.

Thanks:)

Thanks for your reply :) Why is that ? Is it because the quality of their products or you dislike them because the incident they had with motionvfx?

Thanks :)

I think you are trolling. You ask questions about how many machines you can use them on. Then you stick up for them

" The plugins I purchased from them look nice and they even have live support on their web and I asked them for help before."

End of Story! Nothing to see here.

Hi:

I am not trolling. I am new to final cut pro x and I just purchased my plugins from pixel film studios few days ago. I think their plugins are good and thats why I bought them. But then i dont see many reviews on the web regarding to their products. So I am just wondering here if people thinks their plugins are not good enough or just because pixel film studios was reported for copying effects from the motionvfx in the past. I am only asking this because I want to know what the standards are like for the pro editors in terms of effects. I dont want to purchase some effects which I think its good, but it turns out to be crap and there are many good ones out in the market that I am not aware of. Also, I am just not sure how many machines I can use the plugins I bought. I asked them this question and they said I can use my plugins up to three machines. But then again, they could say that just to prevent me from giving my plugins to other people for free. In short, I just want to ask the final cut pro x community for help and see how much the community knows about the pixel film stuidos products and what the community thinks of it.

Thanks.

I've tried some of their plug-ins before the incindent with MotionVFX and always found them to be very slow and never as good as advertised. Now there is this whole aftermath of the mentioned incident and I just stay away from them. It's been a while since this happened, though, and I believe that people can learn and improve and maybe it is time for a second chance?

I don't understand, Ben? Why could one not ask a couple of questions before buying a plug-in? Or if you find my "second chance" statement suspicious, I am honestly not in any relationship with PFS. I don't like what I bought from them. Just believe that people can learn from made mistakes.
