Get Ultimate. It's on sale with other useful downloads periodically. I only paid $65-- for it plus 6 other downloads.

"will my machine still run the software reasonable"

It will 'run' but likely not reasonably. Video processing is all about RAM.

If you can spend ~ $600- look into this:

"If you check ebay, you can find off-lease Dell dual-Xeon workstations with huge amounts of RAM for under $1K.

These machines are about 3 years old and usually have industrial reliability hard drives.

Before buying, I check the Dell serial to be sure they were never serviced. After, I install a new SSD for the system drive, and set whatever old drives in the PC for RAID 0."
Further research on this produced some enlightening info:

"While Google have ever publicly disclosed how Content ID works, the technology is actually licensed from a company called Audible Magic: http://www.audiblemagic.com/ - essentially the technology works similar to that of major music finding apps like Shazzam or Soundhound. "

from https://www.quora.com/Does-Content-ID-look-for-a-match-of-the-actual-code-or-a-match-of-the-audio-produced-by-the-code

But check all the hard work done by Scott Smitelli in his "Fun with YouTube’s Audio Content ID System":

http://www.scottsmitelli.com/articles/youtube-audio-content-id

This is from 2009, but if still applicable, shows you can outwit YouTube by using Audacity to alter the music speed or pitch by 6% in either direction or knocking the song out of phase.

It's not clear what would happen if, instead, you inserted tiny gaps of silence in the unadulterated recording, a la Cinevia for films, or reversed only a handful of small unimportant music slivers, a la the end of 'Strawberry Fields Forever'.
"input from dvd format, clips off my pc"

if these are commercial dvds have to rip them first.

"upscaler picture quality if possible"

you could do this but would be a waste of time and space.

PD14 will do most of this, but also need the free program Handbrake. This has a steep learning curve, but the presets are all you need.

"My machine is an Intel I3-4130cpu, 3.4 ghz ram 3.88gb usuable, 500gb hard drive, 64 bit operating system at the momnet windows 8.1 may upgrade to 10 soon"

This is your real bottleneck. You need a more powerful PC with lots more RAM.

Unfortunately you need Quicktime Player.

To avoid installing apple & other junk, get it from ninite:

https://ninite.com/quicktime/

Then go into msconfig to be sure it's not auto-updating!

Handbrake is the gold standard for conversion. The presets are usually fine.

Configure the two SSDs in RAID 0 using a dedicated card. Put Systemm and PD there, a la Linus here:

Ghost an image of your C:\ drive on the WD Black, using the rest of this drive just for storage.

I am curious how YouTube analytically decides a piece of music is copyrighted and should be taken down.

If you should run a truly copyrighted song thru, say, Audacity to subtly change it pitch, speed, or tempo will YouTube still spot this?

How about if you edit small parts of the tune to run backwards?

Just use VLC Player.

Media > Open Media > Capture Device.

Under 'Capture Mode' select 'Desktop'

Set Frame Rate & caching.

Then hit Convert/Save

Set destination file, hit Start.

Here are two ways to get what you want:

Firstly: Use VLC player to extract thumbnails from you regular video

• Run VLC as admin
• Tools | Advanced Preferences | Filters > Tick ‘Scene Video Filter’
• Expand Filters & Select ‘Scene Filter’
• Paste thumbnails folder path into ‘Directory path prefix’
• Select proportion of frames to export in ‘Recording ratio’ (Type 12 to export 1 frame in 12)
• ‘Save’
• Media -> Open File
• Play entire video
• Retrieve thumbnails

Secondly, run your video thru free MS Hyperlapse tool downloaded from:
http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hyperlapseapps/
Here is a good Time Code explanation:

Forget the batch file.

Got to Start > Msconfig > Services Tab > Check 'Hide all Ms services' > Uncheck Cyberlink RichVideo64 > Ok.

Reboot.

Now start the service only when plan to use Cyberlink
