Mkv as input file

Anybody tried using mkv (h.264) files as input to PowerDirector 8?

I can import the file most of the time - sometimes the program hangs. I can play the file in the preview window

But if I try to add the file to the timeline the program crashes every time. Details are that dmfsource.ax crashed.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I don't know that MKV is officially supported. That would cause exactly the symptoms that you describe. __________________________________
