DOn't worry anymore...I figured my problem out. I forgot that I need to log in as administrator to my laptop when I instll new software or add-ons.

All working fine now. I'm looking at designing some things to share amongst the people here when I have the time.

I am having the same problem but have NOT figured it out yet. Can some one please help me?

I do have in fact exactly the same problem. I downloaded a bunch of different titles, animation etc. Right after downloading them i allways clicked "open" and the installation began and after that it says that i could use it now in powerdirector. But i can't find the installed things inside PowerDirector. Under BIB-Objects there are just the standard-items.

Pretty easy really to answer and I'm sure all of you will "kick yourselves".

1. After installation of the extras you've downloaded and installed, make sure you shut down PD and re-open it.
2. Then to find your new "extras" from directorzone, you'll need to look in the correct "Aspect Ratio".
Directors Chair icon > Edit > Aspect Ratio
Example: the DirectorZone download has a 4:3 Aspect ratio - you need to set PD to 4:3 to get to use it.
3. PD7 2519 now default start up is 16:9 aspect ratio and I think there are an awful lot of 4:3 Extras on the directorzone.

The Extras are installed to a C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\CyberLink

I'm still not able to find what I've downloaded. I double-click on it, and a dialog box pops up telling me to change the aspect ratio (if it's 4:3, it tells me to change it to 16:9 or vice versa). I cannot find them in PD7; I have restarted it a half-dozen times and have had no luck. When I double-click it a box pops up that says something about how the PIP object was successfully installed and is ready to use. But I can never find it in PD.

I'm trying to import an arrow PIP object and I've downloaded both 4:3 and 16:9 versions. I'd love to use these but I am pretty frustrated.

HELP!?!

You are all puppets. The objects don't work unless you have the most up to date Power Director. I have version 6 and nothing works. This is just a con to get you to buy the newest version of the program.

Quote: Hi all PowerDirector users out there. I'm after you help. I'm very new to the program but loving it so far.

I've been able to download and install files from directorzone but I can't find them within the actual program. For example I downloaded a Title file, installed it (it said that it had installed correctly) but when I'm in Director it doesn't appear amongst the other Titles...what am I doing wrong??

Sorry if this question has already been answered. I looked through the forum but couldn't find an answer to my problem.

I do not see any of the downloaded PiP frames when running PowerDirector. I downloaded and installed yet still nother there. How do I access the downloads. This seems to be a common frustration. BTW I ran PowerDirector in admin mode and still no downloads showing.

Thanks

Before you download it tells you exactly what versions of PowerDirector these add-ons will work on, almost always v7 & v8. There are no surprises, it's spelled-out quite clearly. Now whether you're upset because you'd like to have add-ons to PD6 is another story. Obviously the menus people are creating are designed for the newer versions that can take advantage of the menu properties that v6 does not utilize in the same way. Also, these are user-created, which is not Cyberlink's fault anyway.

HELP!!!!!! I have Power Director 8 Ultra. When I download a file to my destop, after downloading it tells that I have successfully downloaded the file. But when I open it, it states "PIP TEMPLATE IS INVALID". What do i need to do?

I download pip objects and in the middle of downloading it says the template is invalid, no reason why or aspect ratio warnings.
I have PD 7 and set the ratio 16:9 and choose only 16:9 objects.

It's time for CYBERLINK to give us an answer on why downloads aren't valid or why we're not given a choice of where to save downloads
