Hello, Tmace!

Just a thought, but do you have another programme that will handle your video file(AVCHD or MP4)? If so, try rendering your clips there(may need to do each clip individually) then bring the newly-rendered clips back to PD14 for editing. Perhaps an earlier version of Power Director(if you still have one alongside PD14) may help solve that issue.

Let us know how you got on, okay?

Cheers & Happy New Year!

Neil.

Be sure to UPDATE your PowerDirector 14 to build 2302. One of the fixes is:
*Enhances AVI video decoding compatibility for creating discs and producing video in Windows 10.

Hi, again Tmace!

I take it then, that you don't have an earlier Power Director version also installed that may help sort out your AVI file problem.... Okay, perhaps try reimorting the clips from your camera(which obviously shoots in AVI file format, some shoot and store as MPEG-2, latter models save as AVCHD or MP4, or both, as in the case of my recent purchase, a Canon Legria model). The AVI file might've been corrupted somehow through the USB connection, try inserting the SD card into a card reader(either built in to your desktop or laptop computer, or via a USB-connectable card reader), that might solve your problem, but I can't guarantee it.

Cheers!

Neil.

Just as I was typing my reply, Barry The Crab has joined the thread, he may well be "on the money" If my idea doesn't work, follow Barry's tip. One way or t'other, you should be able to sort out your problem.
