This is probably a super-noob question but I'm stumped. PowerDirector 6. I set my title screens there are 22 of them. I add the music track for the titles. I then try to add video and it puts the video in the same place in the timeline as the first title. I don't want the video to start until after the title screens have all played. How do I do this??? Please help before I set this software on fire and giggle like a schoolgirl!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Would it help to put a colour board along the timeline and then add the video? that way your titles would run over (maybe a black colourboard) If I understand your concern.

That's exactly what I do. A black .jpeg does the trick. Just stretch it out as long as your titles are, then start your video.

Color Board - as Val McLean has stated is the way to go. NOT a jpeg - no need.

The information and image is already on the forum

Yes it is a jpg BUT just because his attachment is a jpg. What Dafydd and I mean are color boards in the program. See attached.
