Did anyone use EAs Deluxe Video Construction Set?

Since I've used DPaint and DMusic, I was just curious about the other end. What is DVideo like?

I used it the first years I had my A500. You had a timeline and you could put animations, images, sounds, music... it was quite primitive but I had a lot of fun learning to use it.

Of course it's much more primitive than Scala, but came as default with my A500 and I didn't have money so it was good to make small presentations.

Ah, the Win Movie Maker of its day.  :-D

Wow.... that goes way back. I think I used DVCS a couple times, but preferred "The Director". I still like Deluxe Music, but don't really use it much. I was really surprised to see it work rather well under UAE with both emulated Paula and my peecee's MIDI. Too bad it won't read modern MIDI files.

It's a timeline based system. I think this was one of the first programs to do a graphical timeline based system. Paul Montgomery who is known for Newtek's Video Toaster, and Play Inc. was involved in the development as I remember.

Are there any particularly outstanding animations on Aminet that were made with DVideo?
