Tried a couple more times and same problem.
However, found this fix: -
The reason for the crashes was the hardware acceleration. In PD9, go to the Preferences / Hardware Acceleration, and deactivate "Enable hardware encoding". After that, I had no problems with PD9 anymore, it didnt crash anymore.
Tried that and set it going again...see what happens.

Thanks Dafydd......
I really should have taken more care....shouldn't have missed the 3D issue etc.....
Still having some problems when I go to create disk as it has run for about 2 hours then said PD has stopped working.
Just reloading now and clicked to burn in 2D and have a spinning shape...
Hope it may sort out...

Thanks Neil....
funnily enough, I did get that message and thought I better not push the OK.....I will give that a try first...might just do it.
Very grateful for your kind help...seems a lot to be aware of in this program.....a little more familiar with others but do like this one very much.
Thanks again for all your time and help.

Hi Neil...
GOT IT!!!!!!!
But it is even more silly on my part!!!!
I have been trying to burn as a 3d disk....no wonder it was not supported.
One final issue...
My final DVD is 28 gb.
On some programs such as Magix you can adjust the bitrate (I think) to allow a very slight drop in quality to fit onto the blu ray disk.
Is that feature available on Power Director please....cannot see it other than a downgrade to DVD quality etc.
I would like to keep all of the movie if possible as it is a unique holiday video.
Any ideas please would be appreciated.
Best wishes and thanks so much

Back again.
I went straight to create disk and here are the images....still the same message "disk type not supported"
I have tried numerous types of disk and none will burn, yet the same disks burn fine using another program and burning data.
Will not burn from Power Director?
Any help please...totally frustrated
Thanks
Ray

Dear Jaime-esque,
A friend has telephoned and identified that I may have missed the produce element and have not created a file to burn.
I have edited before in Pinnacle, Magix and others but for some reason have possibly omitted a key stage.....
I am now producing the video and have saved the file, due to finish in about 3 hours.....
Perhaps once that is finished, if I get stuck again I can come back yo you for help.
VERY MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR QUICK REPLY AND OFFER TO HELP.
Best wishes
Ray

Apologies if I have duplicated this....my mistake.
Hi to all as a newbie,
I am sorry if this is basic but I have come unstuck and wonder if I could have some help please.
I previously burned a smaller video with no problem but the current one is 13.3 gb. It is to go on a blu ray disk as before using the same burner.
I have a Panasonic Slim External Blu-ray BD-RE Burner Player Writer DVD RW UJ-240.
Came to burn it out and got the message "this disk type not supported".
However, when used for burning (an even larger data file) with Ashampoo on my main PC, using the same disc medium, the external burner was fine.
I have been directed to this: -
" However the real challenge is when it (Power Director 10) comes time to burn a DVD or Blu-ray disk. This is where most all the video editors fail. I finally had to download a free disk build and burn program called ImgBurn. This is a great program I've used for years. I was able to burn a rewritable Blu-ray disk with ImgBurn, but not from within PowerDirector. PowerDirector complained that the disk was incompatible. But ImgBurn had no difficulty at all burning the exact same rendering"
However, as I am new to this I have the following situation
So, I want to burn the project using Ashampoo. (or ImgBurn if better)
The PDS file is in a folder called video and stands alone.
The original footage and some additional JPEGs are in another folder.
The other Main JPEG's are in my photo folders/albums.
I have imported files into Power Director, but do not know what I need to drag into Ashampoo/ImgBurn to produce the video.
I have tried to burn to a folder but get the message
THE SIZE OF THE IMPORTED FILE EXCEEDS THE AMOUNT OF AVAILABLE DISC SPACE.......The file is 13.3gb but free space is 400+ GB???
Can anyone help please?
Much appreciated and many thanks
Ray
