I have been having issues ever since I updated to windows 10, with powerdirector. I updated to PD14 as I was told it supports windows 10.

After my previous response from tech support, per their instructions I did the forum AVI fix, installing the k-lite mega codec pack and running the tweak tool to change the splitter to the LAV splitter. I recorded an AVI video with various codecs including h.264 NVENC VBR and audio codec of PCM as a test (I tried mpeg, xvid, and h.264 codecs) I produced the video (see screenshot) and got an error (see screenshot) saying production unsuccessful. This happened with any and all videos I recorded using various configurations of codecs including h.264, xvid, and mpeg. all videos were recorded as AVI and produced as h.264 AVC MP4 (see screenshot). I am using windows 10, have a GTX 970 video card with 4 gig running on an i7 quad core PC with 16 gig RAM (see dxdiag) PD14 SR# VDE150716-01

If you uncheck the "Fast video rendering technology" the encode might be successfull. I'd also uncheck both items in PD pref > Hardware Acceleration.

Another option would be to verify regedit entries for PD encode are okay (0 value). This error/anomaly has been around for many versions of PD. If one has had an encoding anomaly in the past, a flag can be set and you see the error you posted. Highly unlikely every profile affected but if the issue is just "Produce" with h.264 MP4, 16Mbps this is at least worth checking. It was shown here http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/43754.page#226112 with corrective action.

I would suggest you post a short video reproducing the problem here on the forum, so it can be reproduced by others and perhaps reported to Cyberlink and fixed.
