Hi Barry,
To take this further/up with CyberLink, I would need to have "more ammo", please provide,
1. PDR15 version (I think you're using PDR15 Live),
2. a screenshot of the timeline showing the blanked area,
3. Info on the slideshow selection.
4. Info on the workaround you had to use to recover the situation, (which I see you selected to "Edit", but a pic gets the message across a lot better ).

It was a simple fix after I figured it out, surely you've seen this in the past. It's not common, but has happened in various slideshows since, hmmm, maybe PD10 or 11. Usually removing the SS effect and re-doing it works, but this time I had to try an edit, any edit, in the module, and that fixed it. All is well. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
