Hi all,

I am using PowerDirector Ultra 11 to create training videos for work. There is no audio track at all.

I have two queries:

1. I need to add other languages for the titles/subtitles and I want to add a menu option for each language. Is there a way of keeping the video track but selecting different titles/subtitles via a menu option?

2. I have used titles rather than subtitles so far as I cannot move the subtitles to the bottom of the screen (off the video) .. is there a settings option I am missing?

Please see screenshot.

Do you want to produce different videos with different languages, or have different languages in one video and the user can choose? __________________________________

PowerDirector11 supports one subtitle track only.
how about create multiple subtitles on YouTube? You can create subtitles in PowerDirector and export .srt file then use it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ideally I would want one video and 3 subtitle sets to be selected via a menu so I guess that option is not possible.

Any access or reference to Youtube or similar sites is blocked by work servers so that is also not possible. I guess it's a seperate video with titles in each language then.

I'll just use hyperlinks to the videos but at the cost of more server space.

Thanks for responding. Thank you for any assistance.

I have an idea, I guess your final production is a disc, you can try to make 3 DVD titles with the same video but different subtitles. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sadly no disc. Videos will be stored on a server and accessed via our intranet only. Thank you for any assistance.
