Hi,
I have PowerDirector 8 Ultra. When I bought it online, I got a "content" file called "PowerDirector8_ContentPack"[b]

But is this really providing a lot of extra?
For example, when I go to Create Disc, I have only 5 menu templates... Shouldn't I have tons of them?
Or are we suppose to download whichever template from DirectorZone?

Thanks for any comment on this.

I have 9 standard templates, I think. Did you specifically install the content pack after running the main PD install??

Yes. I did this. And I'm surprised to have so little extra content...
especially when the extra content file is ways bigger than PD8 Ultra itself...

Steve,
Check out the DirectorZone - you'll find some more.

Look at the bottom, starting at #4, I think. That should be the extra content. A lot of it is SmartSound and templates. You have some with the program install. The content pack adds more. The Director Zone is also a good suggestion. __________________________________

sjordi,

Have you installed "Contente_Pack"?

Tried your link and cannot see what you meant by "under #4". Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted... but to weigh and consider.

Sorry, it's under Limitations. I believe it is a limitation because you don't get the content pack with a trial version, so therefore that should be what is in the content pack. You get some of that with the program. The content just adds more.

I hope that cleared it up. If not, just ask. __________________________________

sjordi,

Did not clearly read your very first post.

Indeed, all extra content can be downloaded FREE at DirectZone. I am getting additional menus there. Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted... but to weigh and consider.
