I've used PD10 nearly every day since last February. Suddenly, as of three days ago, I am not able to produce movies. I can edit fine, but when I go to produce a MPEG, I make my settings and click Start, a popup window comes up "Error making movie". If I try to produce in .WMV or .MOV, the movie produces up to 100%, then I get a popup window "Cyberlink CLQTKernelClient32 has stopped working".
I'm providing a screen shot of the error messages, a DXDIAG from this morning, and a sample unedited video clip. I also have a video screen recording of me doing the steps that cause the crash, as well as screen shots of the custom profile settings I use for the MPEG-4 output.
I am NOT using the latest ATI video card driver, as Cyberlink tech support has told me that PD10 has issues with the latest driver.
Though I have made a custom output profile for MPEG-4, I have tried producing using the default setting for MPEG-4 and I get the same popup error no matter if I use a custom profile or the default one. So I don't think it's the custom profile settings that are causing a problem.
I have not installed any new software, nor done anything different or out of the ordinary between four days ago when PD worked great, and three days ago when it started to quit.
You guys are great at figuring out these puzzles, and I would so much appreciate your help. I make short one-minute video demos of the magic tricks we sell in our online magic shop, and I really, really need to be able to use PD! I'm not super tech savvy, so I may need some step-by-steps for any solutions you may want me to try. Thanks in advance!
