Hi People, and Hi DBoydNL. Maybe i'm little late, but, as people have said before, the video program that's more compatible with Xara is the Magix Video Editor. It's not a Video Effects maker like After Effects but, for common videos, it's good enough and with a faster rendering than Premiere. Even more, if you are designing elements in Xara you can send your selection directly to your Video Project in a while.
