I am working on my movie. I have a bunch of audio, photos, and titles in the timeline. I have a video that I want to put after them. But whenever I drag it to the video track, powerdirector always wants to put it at the beginning -- even if I drag it way over to the right.

How do I get around this?

Any files in the main timeline default to the left.
You can work around this by just using the pip timeline.
or
Place a blank png file or colorboard in the main timeline (it will default to the left) and stretch it out to the point you wish to begin your actual video. Join/SignUp to SeeMyWorldOnVideo. We're PowerDirector Video Editors. Are you a member? - JOIN TODAY!

Hi William,
I had a simular problem, but any clip I tried to insert between two others always ended up on the right.
A reboot of the pc and basically stopped trying to do many things at once, (E mail, browsing while editing.)

Editors do not like to share PCs!

Anyway, that solved it for me on taht occasion and on other occasions where things were not behaving.

Reboot, don't run other progs.
