Just upgraded to PD 14.

Some of my FX do not work, such as zoom in, zoom out & ripple. Most work OK.

Suggestions on how to reset so they work again?

Hi Kenn1 -

Those FX are working fine here, so no "systemic" issue.

When you add the effects, is there no immediaste impact on the clip? What happens when you go to Keyframe?

GPU driver up-to-date?

Apply fx such as 'zoom in' to pict.

When 'play', pict shows up at 170 x 170 instead of 0 x 0 and no zoom effect.

I can use either the 'effect settings' or the 'key frame' settings to change the to the original size, but no zoom effect.

GPU up to date.

Thank you in advance for all ideas.

Ah -

I see what you mean.

In PDR13, the Zoom In effect is keyframed by default. It zooms from 0 to 57. In PDR14, it's set at a static 171, so you have to keyframe it yourself. (screenshot attached)

The same thing applies to Zoom Out & Ripple.

Thank you much for the info.
Wonder if CyberLink will see the issue and send out a patch to correct them.

Best to you,
