Rendering in timeline

I am using PD11 (Ultra)
I am having the dreaded green rendering in the timeline problem that is so common with all versions of Power Director...

One fix I have used in the past was to remove the video that was having the problem from the timeline and library, rename it original source folder then import it to the library again and re-add it to the timeline, however this is no longer working either...

I have tried downloading PD11 patches

I have attempted to do a "clean" uninstall/reinstall of my Nvidia driver to the 301.42 version as suggested in a previous forum.

Silverbus88 ,

I suggest that you look at the minimum requirements for PD11 at :

If you are trying to do HD editing your PC will simply not do and you'll see some of the issues that you now face. Win 10, i7

HDedit,

Thank you for your reply.
Please elaborate SPECIFICALLY on what in my system would cause a rendering problem in the timeline?

Comparing my specs to the PD11 requirements

Operating system: XP Service Pack 3... CHECK!
CPU Processor for "DVD quality "High Quality MPEG-2" or "High Quality MPEG-4": AMD Athlon 64 X2... CHECK!
Memory: 512 MB Required...CHECK!
Hard Disk Space: "10 GB (20 GB recommended) for DVD Production"... CHECK!
Graphics Card: "128 MB VGA Vram or higher"... CHECK!
Nvidia: GeForce 8500GT/9800GT and above GeForce GT/GTS/GTX 200/400/500/600 Series... Hmmmm I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE

Can I replace the video card and SPECIFICALLY fix the rendering problem in the timeline or is there a different solution?

Hi Silverbus88,

Are the mov and mp4 files HD resolution, 1920x1080, aspect ration 16:9?

Are shadow edit files on or off?

What is your preview player setting?

Real-time or non real-time preview?

Why have you not updated to the latest Nvidia driver?

Have you applied the latest PDR11 update patch?

Why have you not updated to the latest Nvidia driver?

I had the latest driver and had the rendering problems I described. I carefully researched and read the forums on this site which suggested I should do a "clean" uninstall of the updated driver and reinstall of the 301.42 version

Now I will research and attempt to find the answers to your other questions while wondering if they will specifically help me solve the rendering in the timeline problem.

Thank you for your continued help!

Dafydd,
As mentioned in previous posts I tried both of your latest suggestions previously with no effect. I just ordered a new computer so I will try again with the new machine and see if I have success.
