Some of the edit tools, such as background removal (lasso tools) and wrinkle remover do not seem to work in Photo Director 3 with Windows 10. For example, the lasso tool appears when I select it, and as I hover it over the background area beside the photo, it appears, but as soon as I move it into the photo area, it appears as a circle with a red line through it. Anyone else experience this?

Wow, I just tried the same trick....unchecked the fast rendering box, and now movies are producing again. I've got a ticket into support, though, and will keep you posted. We shouldn't have to uncheck a fast rendering box....hoping the next patch will fix this, but the Jan. 5 , 2014 patch did not!

Thanks for the suggestions.
It turns out that I followed the advice from another post in this forum, and switched from VMR7 to VMR9 in the registry and it worked!
I do, however, have both Quick Time and Windows Media Player installed, although I did update Quick Time before the fix above and that did not help. Does Windows Media Player also cause some problems?

I had the same problem with the green screen in preview mode (from the timeline). Videos would play when selecting medium preview quality, but when I selected "high", I got the green screen and the timeline did not move, although audio played. After following the advice below, I switched vmr7 to vmr9 in the registry, everything worked fine! Thanks!
A followup question, though, is whether switching from VMR9 to EVR (enhanced video rendering) would provide even better quality. EVR came in with later versions of Windows. However, I'm afraid to change this again, since the VMR9 seems to work perfectly with PowerDirector 11.
Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for a response from Cyberlink Tech support. I had to expend a lot of effort to send them screen shots, dxdiag file, etc.
Thanks again for the good fix noted below!

Videos, photos, titles, or any media show as a blank green screen when dragged to the timeline, when using the "high" quality preview. The sound plays, but the timeline does not move. When I switch to medium quality, it works. However, high quality is fine in the media window, just not on the timeline.
I have an Asus laptop, 16 GB RAM, Nvidia Geforce graphics card, 1924 resolution screen, brand new. I updated the Nvidia driver a a couple of days ago, directly from their website, but it still gives the same error. I also updated QuickTime.
Note that nothing, not even a still image (with the default 10-second play time) works properly on the timeline. Just the green screen when in high quality preview resolution.
