Many thanks c2hopper - I'm gonna give that a try. Really appreciate your advice. It does seem a faff to achieve something that should be so straightforward. Even when I was using the very basic MovieMaker they managed to make adding music work - goodness knows why PD10 can't!!!

UnlikelySalsero - the scenario you describe in your first post above is exactly what's happening to me in preview mode. I get that it is just a preview issue, but it makes it very difficult to edit when it occurs. For instance, I'm trying to position a piece of music at a precise point in a video - I want a canon fire in the music to coincide with a particular point in the video. If I play just the clip where the canon fire should be, the music is in sync fine. If I play from the beginning of the music track, the music finishes too soon so the canon fire is in the wrong clip. Eeek!

Thanks guys - brilliant! Exactly what I was looking for. I'll have a practice now.

I'm trying to use two video tracks so that I can produce a film from footage from two cameras. When I try to lay the two tracks underneath each other, only one video picture shows and the other track seems to change to be the same as the first(sorry if that doesn't make sense). I'm obviously doing something wrong. What I'm trying to achieve is a continuous sound track with shots from each of the two films by leavings gaps where I've deleted in either track.
Any advice anyone?
Thanks.

Thanks Nina. Yes that's what I want to achieve but not quite sure how to go about it and keep the music in sync. I think I sort of have the idea - put the two video tracks one above the other, mute one of the audio tracks and cut out the bits I don't want on the video right? Just didn't understand the re-sizing bit, or how accurate that's gonna be? Or how to insert "cut away" bits of video?

I'm just bumping this up cos I have the same question, just learning with PD10 and want to produce a video of a concert with two cameras and one audio track. Any advice appreciated - I have just read through an earlier post which mentions "resizing" but I'm not sure I fully understand this. Sorry for being a numpty

Thanks for your help guys. I've now managed to solve the problem by doing the "apply to all pages" as you suggested. Also on the bottom left hand corner there's an option when burning the disc to "start from menu" or "start from title". If I chose the start from title option, it seems to leave out the unwanted menu.
The problem wasn't that I wanted to use the menus, it was that this monopoly board appeared out of nowhere - it wasn't in my edited video. Bizarre.

I'm just making my first film from Power Director 10, after upgrading from a previous version. I'm transferring the film to DVD and don't want any menus. When I've transferred the film to DVD, a menu seems to be inserted by default - it's a picture of a monopoly board with the buildings on it and a "play" option. Is there any way I can get rid of this please?
Thanks.

I'm trying to capture video from a Panasonic HDC - SD900 camera. When in capture mode the HDC camera icon is greyed out in PD10 so therefore isn't working.
As a test I have uploaded video from another HD camera via the Panasonic software and tried importing this into PD10 but there is a massive degradation of quality.
Can anyone help as to why PD10 won't allow me to import directly from the camera?
Thanks
