And the plot thickens. The problem is NOT just with overlaps... and I DO hope that this can be fixed soon as it's a major issue, at least with me. ANY clip in another layer that runs "on top of" the master footage causes a SHIFT in the stabilized master footage and makes it look like a glitch. Even worse, setting that cutaway track to invisible (via the check box) does NOT correct the problem.
I am new here on the forum... do key people from Cyberlink read this stuff? If not, where can I report this issue?
Again, thanks for your assist with this.

Yep, that's the one ;![]() I just took a closer look at pixelans products. WOW. I may just eliminate this issue and NOT use overlaps anymore, as I play with each clips "artistic" attributes so I use a lot of time altered and filtered footage, and apparently Cyberlinks ability to dissolve between those cleanly is a bit challenged. No issue, at least I now know what I need to work around ;![]()
Gonna attempt to do that SSD upgrade in a while. Phew.... time for a total reset. Thanks for the advice in that regard, much appreciated.
Back to drooling over pixelan's products. I see a few I must have NOW ;![]() What other third party products do you guys know of ? ;![]()

Not sure what you mean by "Default type", but another thought occurred to me. Could also be a change in frame rate? I have some altered video speeds in places.... I can't quite determine what the repeatable sequence is, as some transitions are fine, and others are not. But again this did not happen prior to the update.
I have no idea how using transitions directly would change the process as this is a wedding and it has a LOT of edits. I'm surely not going to reassemble it using another method at this point ;![]() It's not even a paid wedding... I don't usually DO weddings anymore (after a 17 year burnout, 23 years ago) but this was a favor. What I am hoping is to reset my machine, STOP at the older version and re render .... phew. gotta love software ;-0
BUT, I think I may join you and STOP using the overlapping auto mode and use the hardset transitions, at least until they fix that annoyance.
I'll keep my eye out for more clues ;![]() If the files weren't huge, I'd send em over to ya.
Cheers

You got me thinking about taking a closer look at the frame by frame and I think I may have discovered a small bug?
I am learning to shoot with a steadicam rig and am therefore using the image stabilization feature of PD on a semi-regular basis. Most of my transitions are simple crossfades, and I allow PD to handle that for me automagically by overlapping the clips. It is at THESE junctures that my video seems to glitch but at closer look I think the image stabilization disengages but just for a few frames (or perhaps the length of the crossfade?) which of course makes it LOOK like a jump/glitch. If this is happening then this is why it began to happen after the upgrade, as the last version did not display that issue.
Can someone please verify this for me so I know I'm not the only one? ![]()
If this is the case, is there some way to downgrade without having to REinstall ?
Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for the validation on my thinking (regarding the fact that this machine SHOULD work fine).
I am about to install that SSD and reinstall everything from scratch...
I have not taken 8.1 over the finish line because I was one of those that got bit by MS during that first upgrade run and it BRICKED my machine badly.... I lost EVERYTHING and had to reset. And so I have been a bit gunshy about the upgrade, but ... when I reset this box in a week or so, I'll surely address that.
Thanks for the looksee!

Nothing to screen capture... the stills are fine, but when you run the live video, most (not all) of the edit points jump slightly. I'm trying to turn this into a very capable editing machine, and I know the installation of the SSD will help a lot, but I don't think what I have right NOW should result in glitchy output.
Thanks again for your assistance!
Respectfully,

I have a problem with what I consider a "challenged" video output. I have an i5 with 28GB and, a GenForce GTX 770 with 4GB on board. I did not have this problem prior to installing the latest patch.
I am sure my problems are with my current config and also the fact that at this moment, I am a single HD operation. I have an SSD in the drawer but am needing a hole in my schedule to do the switch over. I acquire, edit and output to MP4, 1920/30 frames (16Mbps) and the glitches I see during preview are ALSO showing in the output ;-( Output was fine prior to the latest update. The video jumps at the point where a video overlaps the first layer, despite the fact that the transition has yet to happen. The transitions themselves are clean.
My interface and preview are also riddled by a struggling graphics output to the point where sometimes when loading a lot of HD clips the interface doesn't refresh well and I have to inconify the interface and bring it back into focus to force a redraw.
This baffles me because I tried to the best of my ability to purchase enough resources to avoid this issue .... and so I believe this is a configuration issue, but I don't even know what to look for.
I have verified that I have the latest patch, etc. But so far, once after updating my magic music feature locked me up (without the recovery file operating upon return). I am licensed Sonicfire and am fully operational in that regard.
I appreciate any and all help in this matter.
Cheers

optodata, yes thanks for the tip... I felt this WAS a patch issue since I did not have that issue prior. But I will be happy to start another thread...
