So I've had powerdirector 9 for about a month now, and I've been feeling limited with the number of special effects options that are available for inclusion into my video clips. Is there a particular website that offers more effects downloads, whether bundled in content packages or not, that I could utilize ?

Thanks

Not sure what type of "effects" you are looking for, audio, video, animations..... You can try http://directorzone.cyberlink.com/ and see if that's what you are looking for.

Hello everybody. I know this post is a bit old, but I ran into the same question with no solution ( I mean, answer is just "no").

As posted in other topics in this forum, the term "effects" in power director mean something like "processing video image" but in directorzones, effects are just moving particles, objects, adding titles, background image, with some motion.

Many of them can be easily built from scratch, but of course, they can save time and give many ideas.

What I understand the original questions mean is "effect" in the first sense: "processing video image" which are not so trivial to build and sometimes it's not possible unless programming powerdirector or adding dlls.

Of course, It cannot be done by end users, but It would be good if Cyberlink could offer some "addons" for effects to donwload like an extention pack to install in an existing PD, but with real video effects, not only particles, images and DVD menus, or maybe just, leaving an API open to users, so that video image processing and complex effects can be developed and easily added by end users.

Has anybody found a solution to this?

Regards, Eze

This thread is about a certain "plug-in" company, but could really apply to any them.
Up to now, PD only allows Smartsound, CL Wave Editor, and I suppose CL PhotoNow is a plug-in also.
Perhaps in a future version, and you can always make a nice (but firm) request to CL to consider it. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
