Hmmm.. no output button on Ver.7. That's crazy. Oh well thanks for letting me know Ver.11 has what I need.

Hi y'all, I'm relatively new to PowerDirector... I have ver. 7.
As I TRIM clips, I find it hard to pin-point the exact spot I need at the end. Getting the front end correct is easy because I found that while playing, if I adjust the micro-seconds on the Start pane to the right (where it shopws clip duration, Start Mark location and End Mark location), the video (clipping portion) restarts right at that point. I can therefore take off or add frames and see clearly the results.
But then the video plays out through the TRIMMED portion, it does not stop when it reaches the END MARK. I have no real way to preview that moment where it should stop.
So from there I say OK, and the clip trims, then I go back to the timeline and have to play the movie to see if I got it right. usually it's off a few frames, so I have to attempt to TRIM it again, and take another stab in the dark. Again and again and again. Seems tedious.
I am proficient with audio editing using Total Recorder, and their trim function has an option to "stop at end of clip" allowing for precise marking... making editing fast and efficient. Where am I not finding this ability in PD, to get the preview playback to stop at my End Mark while editing?
Thanks so much everybody.
