Sorry guys..I had rough work schedule this week. Will try few things later today or Friday. Will post results!

I think I will try to capture new footage from my Handycam to my internal drive and try editing that with the same transitions/effects. See if I notice same issue.
Talk to you all later!! and big TY to you both!!

That's all the time I have for now...will download the codec pack when I get a chance and try editing again.
Dafydd- My windows recorder will not save to jpeg or the other format. I tried to unzip it and it only gave me the option i attached. I will look into downloading one that you suggested and repost screenshots.
Thanks for all the help...was not expecting to have issues with this program..but should have known better. I have tried every nle out there except the real spendy ones like CS5 and Edius 6. Although the Neo 2.5 trial has had no issues that I could detect.....yet!!!

Ok. Just tried to edit about 1 min. project. I transfered those files to my internal drive.
Imported into editor and timeline. Added 1 transition effect..Dominos Right. Opened my coretemp utility and monitored cpu usage.
Right at the transition point..same thing. The preview stops and audio continues. I pause the preview. The program freezes for about 5 seconds. It starts again where it left off in the audio segment where I paused it.
I did this with coretemp open and closed. Same issue. My cpu usage at the transition point goes down to about zero!! While the clips are playing before the transition point it is around 4-1o%

Yes, the Corsair SSD has my Windows 7 and few programs installed. That is all. I have a 1Gig internal drive that I will be using for projects. I was hoping to use my external for Footage. But will try your suggestion and see if editing is smooth with video files on that drive.

Good one Kevin. Did not think that having my video footage on external drive would hinder the editing process.
Will transfer some over to my internal drive and try editing again..oh boy..looks like I will be running late for work..lol...oh well..I gotta figure this out! It is driving me nutts!

I will look into the codec pack suggestion a little closer. Will do some investigating and see. I need to be off to work for now..thx a bunch everyone!! Will check back in 10 hours. Then will not have time for more troubleshooting for few days. Hope we can fix this!!

Thanks for quick reply Kevin!
I tried the GPU setting both on and off.
The preview plays fine with no problems when only the clips are in the timeline. It is fine with simple transitions and titles.
It stutters and freezes with complex transitions and other effects from the Power Tools munue. I have not had a chance to isolate all the effects it could potentialy have trouble with. But I bought the program specifically for the purpose of editing with certain effects.
Almost any simple editor can play avchd files on a timeline!! Even some for free. Heck...my Windows Movie maker can do that. I was hoping for a editor that could do more.... 
Did you get a chance to download the screenshots in a few posts above?? All i have on the timeline are a few clips and simple transitions and one Dominos left transition...where the hang up starts!

Ok, see if this worked. I tried to change the extension to jpeg but it would not open. Thanks for looking at it Dafydd.

I used the Problems Steps Recorder in Win. 7 to capture the screen shots..hmmm..I'm not sure it gave me an option to save in other format. Will try it again. Gotta go work so I could pay off this monstrosity of a computer. Will try to repost before I'm out the door.
KEVIN- It better be adequate!! I7 x980 what more could I get!!! I guess I could OC but I did not think I would need to. Since you have same Handycam..how has your experience been editing raw AVCHD files in Cyberlink? Anything special you do to the files before editing? I was considering getting Edius Neo Booster 2.5. I downloaded the trial and man, it is amazingly fast and accurate. I had no hangups editing the raw files with the trial version. Was hoping to get that with Powerdirector. Any advice is helpful!!

Hi everyone. just purchased Powerdirector about 2 weeks ago via online download from site. Having issues editing AVCHD M2ts files. It freezes at transition points and if I add any video effects like Speed or other effects. The audio continues. I have to constantly pause for several seconds then resume in order to edit. We all know how fun it is editing this way!!
I have tried everything mentioned in previous posts and uninstalling and reinstalling. Any help is appreciated!
Video cam - Sony HDR SR11 AVCHD, Rec mode AVCHD 16M HD FH
Shadow Files-OFF (tried both on and off)
GPU-OFF (same as above)
